He played thru injury, there were times he couldn't tie his own skates and had a trainer tie them. He also would only wear slip on shoes due to the pain he had in his back.
Not to mention he is a cancer survivor....you gotta give it to him. He was the best and still wasn't 100% for a huge portion of his career.
The Pittsburgh Penguins traded away anyone worth anything so they would tank and get Lemieux at Number 1. Look it up, today Bettman would be fining teams for this. It was obvious.
Lemieux I cant even say anything less then Best player ever to play the game!
Now as for Jagr He was blessed come on after grez and lemieux who els owned the art ross just jagr wining 4 in a row without lemieux jagr = True greatness!
jagr won 5 art ross and he did carry all his teams people expect him to do everything he is human!
@acemike101 Jagrs greatest offensive season is like Lemieux's 7th best season in an injury riddled season. Jagr wishes he had Lemieuxs hands and vision. AN out of shape, smoking, beer drinking lemieux scored 199 points in one season without no supoorting cast.
0:54 is just greatness. He completely undressed the best Defenseman to ever play the game. (Ray Bourque)

Jagr has never carried a team..why didn't he carry the caps or rangers? He's a scorer not a leader

It was a good thing that a young Czech showed up in 91 to show him how to win. Jagr carried him from 94 until his retirement.

interresating point of view (not).. I would say Jagr was lucky to play with him, cuz these are the only 2 cups he'll ever win.
