From James Duthie in the Ottawa Citizen:
For it seems that to be a true superstar in today’s NHL, you cannot be out of your frat-boy years. Just take at the top look at the scoring race:
1.Evgeni Malkin—39 points (22 years old)
2.Sidney Crosby—34 points (21)
3.Ryan Getzlaf—31 points (23)
6.Aexander Ovechkin—30 points (23)
8.Patrick Kane—28 points (19)
9.Devin Setoguchi—27 points (21)
10. Alexander Semin—27 points (24)
That’s right. Seven of the top ten players still cannot legally drink in New Delhi, India (minimum 25 years old).
Read on. Duthie goes on to compare the current group to the leading scorers of a decade ago, and the age contrast is notable.
