Jagr would rank 6th best ever in my book. The top 3 are on most people’s list Gretzky, Orr and Lemieux. Most people would put Howe forth. The fifth spot would be between Jagr and Mike Bossy and although Bossy only played 10 years I would have to give him the nod. He averaged 57 goals a year over his career nobody has come close. Gretzky’s average is just under 45. It is hard to compare forwards to defense. Larry Robinson should be in the top 5 or 6 also. 20 years straight making the playoffs and a career plus minus of 730 is crazy.

What about Lidstrom Darrin? 20 years of playoffs (every year of his career), 1142 points (another 183 in the playoffs), 7 Norris Trophies and 4 Stanley Cups.
It’s recency maybe, but personally I have Lidstrom ahead of Jagr and Bossy.

Yeah I would put Lidstrom at the top too. It is funny how Messier is second all time and doesn’t even make most people’s top 10 list. Also I know his stats don’t show it but the best player I have seen in the last 20 years was Pavel Datsuyk. I think he may have been the most skilled player ever.
