Maybe I'm playing Devil's advocate because again honestly I'm really not a Jagr fan. Biggest thing in my opinion he comes up short on is Cups.
You just changed the goal posts. You didn't say since 1990 in the the post I replied to and yes Gretzky was on another level, as was Orr. They had to make rule changes to contain Gretzky.
