He has elite vision and hands. Those don’t degrade as fast as skating and shot power.
Adam Oates - another great passer - was still scoring over a point a game and leading the league in assists at age 39. Other elite playmakers have also aged well - Thornton put up a point a game at 36, and H Sedin had 73 points as a 35 year old.
