My bad, I was thinking about Konstantinov. I don't remember Larionov that much, I looked him up and the guy never scored more than 21 goals and 71 pts, doesn't even seem to be a comparison. Fedorov is one of the more overrated hockey players I have ever seen, he was a great two-way player, but his offensive ability was not anywhere near Jagr's. Forsberg is close, but I still give the nod to Jagr. The problem with all the guys you mentioned is they were never the best player in the league, and Jagr was.
