Jagr says he's got lots of hockey left

Link
The numbers suggest that five-time NHL scoring champion Jaromir Jagr is a player in decline, but the New York Rangers star winger says he isn't done yet.
The goals and points aren't coming for the 35-year-old with the regularity they did through most of his first 16 seasons in the NHL, when the gifted Czech winger was one of the league's brightest stars and most dangerous scoring threats.
The New York Rangers captain went into a game Tuesday night against the Montreal Canadiens without a goal and with only three assists in his previous 11 games.
"I still believe in myself," Jagr said. "When you're not scoring, you want to do a little extra and maybe later it will help me.

I am a firm believer that Jagr really Does have alot of hockey left to play. He just might not be fitting into the Rangers new system, which does happen. An example being Mark Rechhi, who was struggling to get any points in Pittsburgh, but when traded to Atlanta, seemed to do alot better. I think Jagr would do alot better on a different team. Which team? im not too sure. But I know Jagr would agree with me that a 1 season slump is nothing to be concerened about.
