It would be hard to imagine that one team's schedule could be that dramatically different than another team's, in order to inflate stats to the point where they weren't comparable. I know that some divisions are weaker, but not that much.

Carey deserves the attention that he has been getting. But I think it is also important to keep in mind that he is 23 - a full 3 years older than Gaudreau and the same age as Colborne and Brodie.

It is not unlike a 20 year old tearing up the CHL - it's still impressive, but it can't be ignored that everyone else is younger than them.
