from Alan Ryder of the Globe and Mail,
How good is Sidney? How good could he become? How does he compare with Wayne Gretzky, his landlord (Mario Lemieux), Steve Yzerman and the game’s other superstars? The best way to answer that question is to find a group of similar players and study their performance over time.
To properly conduct that analysis it is necessary to pay attention to three large factors — age of entry into the NHL, experience and playing time. There is a huge difference between the careers of players who are prominent in the NHL in their teens and those who attain prominence at a later age.

Kukla’s Korner is always a free service for readers, but it costs some money to maintain. If you’re ever in a position to donate a few dollars to help out, we’d be very appreciative.

Great exercise, even if it doesn’t serve much more purpose then to hypothesize over how good a great career is going to be.
