Taratukhin - .75 ppg - 23 yo
Knight - .63 ppg - 23 yo
Backlund - .59 ppg - 20 yo
Van Der Gulik - .54 ppg - 23 yo
Sylvester - .53 ppg - 22 yo
Horak - .51 ppg - 21 yo
Nemisz - .49 ppg - 20 yo
Bolded the guys who's rookie seasons were at a similar age as Knight's.
Hopefully his career path follows Moss' and not Van Der Gulik's.

Granlund's name right beside Boyd's gives me pause, noticed it right away. Same age, same size, same PPG, similar type of player... hopefully different result
