Jagrs best season was at 24 yrs old.



He's still playing 20 years later at a very high level.

the morning pissing contests was high level nhl players (up front) peak at 25

nice chart, and graph trying to back up the article


way too many players stats over that age for that theory

even if you took the top 50 players of all time and average the age of their best work, it's probably closer to 28 then 25

You could argue that with Viagara, the average male is peaking well into his 70s

When the facts don't fit into your preconceived notions, the facts must be wrong. Because we all know everything you guys think is always 100% spot on.

I am pretty sure they are talking about todays NHL, not twenty, thirty years ago and more.

Wake up sheeple, there is no conspiracy trying to twist facts around so we think players peak earlier than we should. The facts are the facts.

You all sound like climate change deniers and flat earthers. "It's cold today, so climate change isn't happening." "Look around man, everywhere you look it's flat, the earth is not a globe, see, it's flat here, it's flat here, it's flat here. Must be flat."

I said point blank before, that the info presented wasn't wrong. The problem, is that the facts were strategically selected, which is the case in a lot of these "advanced stats" that we see today.

You can't say that a player's scoring declines after age 25 when you're only looking at a sample of guys that are between age 21-29 and that are in the Top 9 (forwards). You're missing a ton of players by hand selecting that set criteria.

Facts are facts, but again, they can be twisted around in a way that make them not quite as "Factual" as they technically should be.

EDIT: Also, please don't generalize and calls us all "guys." We are not, in FACT, all guys.

Speaking of Facts:

FanDuel has officially ceased operations in NYS as of 2:30 today. DrafKings wont be far behind, IMO.

Court case is next Wednesday, Paul Cambria said this morning that they will continue to operate things just may change a little and also stated that if the judge rules in favor of DFS don't be surprised if online poker makes a comeback because it is also a game of "skill"
