Someone forgot to tell Lanny McDonald.

I wouldn't used the outlier to prove the premise.
I also wouldn't use a player from an era when guys used training camp to quit smoking to disprove it either.

Johnny may not be a 12 million-dollar player when he's 38. He probably won't be.

From 30-36 however? He doesn't get hit and has no notable injuries. As long as that continues, he's the exact sort of player who can play at an elite level well into his 30s.
