There was an over representation of players from the 1980s an early 90s when scoring was at obscene levels. Pat LaFontaine? Mike Gartner? Bob Gainey?
Personally I like that they did the breakdown of pre-67 and post-67 because frankly, the original 6 era would be much more difficult to accurately compare and contrast, so I will try for a top 67 since 67 list. (numbered so I can keep track, not due to ranking)
