We're back to you being categorically wrong about things. The vast majority of players do not significantly improve after age 23. Production peaks around that age and then plateaus for a couple of years before falling on average in the late 20's. Almost no one suddenly jumps 77% in point production after they've been in the year a couple of seasons. It's possible that Lindholm is an outlier, and that explanation is given more credence because it's hard to see what else could be causing it, but as a general rule, your statement above is categorically false.
