National Hockey League career points

An interesting graph presented at Neoformix, a site that specializes in "discovering and illustrating patterns in data."  The graph resonates with me because I was managing a junior varsity hockey team in Boston back when Bobby Orr joined the Bruins.  Wayne Gretzky's incredible achievement is highlighted both by the increased slope of the line and the shift to the left on the age-axis.  A separate graph at the link includes the opening years of Sidney Crosby's career.
