No more than Gretzky missing half the season in 92/93 did or Jagr missing a 1/4 of the season in 96/97 did.
At the end of the day, no matter what metric is used, Gretzky was still the more effective point producer from 90/91-98/99 which is all that was being asked in the first place.
Raw
Gretz 1.37PpG
Jagr 1.32PpG
Adjusted
Gretz 1.30PpG
Jagr 1.29PpG
I'll end it here though, it's not going any where.
I'm not ever going to accept that converting same seasons to Adjusted Stats would ever be valid over the actual same season data(or that I will not continue to find it one of the most idiotic wastes of time ever!). Nor do I believe Adjusted Stats was ever intended to be used that way either.
No point in continuing.
