Jagr had 33 ES points in 2016-17. When was the last season our current over-25 wingers or available UFA options had 33 even strength points or greater?
Frolik - 2016-17 - 33 ES points
Jagr - 2016-17 - 33 ES points
Hudler - 2015-16 - 36 ES points
Iginla - 2014-15 - 46 ES points
Stafford - 2014-15 - 33 ES points
Versteeg - 2011-12 - 35 ES points
Doan - 2011-12 - 35 ES points
Brouwer - Never
Chiasson - Never
Take away the fact that he is older than Gaudreau/Bennett combined and no longer a generational superstar and you still have a forward who can help this team score goals, perhaps on a line with two heavier forwards like Tkachuk and Monahan or two speedier forwards to offset his diminished speed, like Bennett/Gaudreau, or something in the middle.
