It's pretty rare that a player stays healthy and productive after 32.

Only 58 skaters in the NHL last year were 33 or older.
16 of those were over 0.8 ppg.

It's a pretty special list of players.

Crosby, Josi, Stamkos, Hedman, Kane, Kadri, Kreider, Zeccarello, Kopitar, Marchessault, O'Reilly, Ovechkin, Tavares, Marchand, Malkin and Pavelski.
Not sure where you got 58 from. I see 101 on Hockey Reference.
