Jaromir Jagr set a New York Rangers record Wednesday night when he assisted on four goals in the Rangers 5-1 win over the New York Islanders.
Jagr has 113 points in 73 games so far this season. The previous record was held by Hall of Famer Jean Ratelle, who had the record of 109 points in the 1971-72 regular season.
In related Jagr news, the New York Rangers superstar wants to retire when his contract expires in two years. He will be 36 then, and he said he intends to return to Europe.
"It all depends on how healthy I'm going to be and how good I'm going to be," the hockey superstar told the New York Times. "I don't want to play on a third or a forth line. I don't think I can do it. It wouldn't be good for the team."
