Even at 50-years-old Jaromir Jagr is still playing hockey at a high level. Despite his age he doesn't appear to be slowing down anytime soon. Since retiring from the NHL, Jagr has remained active in the European Hockey scene.
The hockey legend took to Instagram to respond to a fan who had replied to a post by Sportsnet.
Instagram user tsivak22 decided it was a good idea to take a shot at previous generations players with his comment saying:
I'm sorry of these 50% of those guys wouldn't even put up 60 points in Today's NHL.
Jagr quickly stepped in and responded with:
@tsivak22 what? I did 66 points at age 44 six years ago. And same players on that list are better then me. Mario and Wayne would be unstoppable.
It's always great to see a legend like Jagr clapping back at some of the uneducated hockey fans.
