I find this interesting when you pull out some numbers by year:
| PLAYER | Year | G | A | P |
| Lemieux | 1989 | 50 | 74 | 124 |
| Yzerman | 1989 | 55 | 68 | 123 |
| Gretzky | 1989 | 46 | 75 | 122 |
| Robitaille | 1989 | 44 | 46 | 90 |
| PLAYER | Year | G | A | P |
| Lemieux | 1993 | 56 | 59 | 115 |
| Yzerman | 1993 | 46 | 59 | 104 |
| Selanne | 1993 | 62 | 37 | 100 |
| Oates | 1993 | 24 | 70 | 94 |
| Turgeon | 1993 | 41 | 52 | 92 |
| Robitaille | 1993 | 44 | 47 | 91 |
| Recchi | 1993 | 41 | 50 | 91 |
| PLAYER | Year | G | A | P |
| Gretzky | 1990 | 31 | 83 | 114 |
| Yzerman | 1990 | 46 | 47 | 94 |
Yzerman second in 89, 90, and 93.
How far back do the numbers you used for this table go? I see Trottier, but I don't see Lafleur. But Lafleur is on your earlier lists. I also wonder what the numbers are for seasons such as Yzerman's 87-88. He had a total 50-52-102 in only 64 games; HR's complex method puts him at 42-43-85, compared to 54-74-128 for 88-89. Assuming a similar ES/PP/SH distribution between the two seasons, this would suggest Yzerman's numbers *should* come up around 82 points for 64 games using your method, which suggests 102.5 for a full 80 - again second place. But without the actual numbers in hand, I can't make the calculation.
