Patrick Marleau at age ~38ish was still one of the most physically impressive players in the league. He never had ovechkin's ceiling in his prime.
Marian Hossa at age ~36 was elite AF. his "injury" (which happened to co-incide with a significant drop in his salary...) hurt Jonathan Toews' career more than anything else.
