Jagr becomes 5th player with 200 career playoff points

With his first point of the 2016 playoffs, Jaromir Jagr has joined an elite group.

The 44-year-old's assist on Teddy Purcell's second-period goal Wednesday made the Florida Panthers forward just the fifth player in NHL history to record 200 career playoff points.

Jagr joins a quartet of former Edmonton Oilers greats in Wayne Gretzky, Mark Messier, Jari Kurri, and Glenn Anderson to hit the mark.

The assist was also Jagr's 122nd of his postseason career and moved him past Anderson and Al MacInnis for ninth on the NHL's all-time list.
