It's not dribble at all, I was replying to a specific example and now you bring up 2 other guys.
I had a quick look at the top scorers of all time and there is very little evidence to support any trend that 23 is the peak year.
If most players peak was at 23 we would find that to be true but it just isn't.
Delvecchio, who played with Howe, peaked in his late 20's, so did the Moose, Forsberg, Sakic, Francis, Dionne and many others
