Yeah, 41 goals (pro-rated to 47 goals had he played all games). All without Makarov on the team. So I'm not sure if I would say every goal he scored was because of Makarov...
Also saying that he never came close after leaving the Flames (and Makarov who had already long gone) conveniently ignores the fact that he had what was thought to be a career ending injury with the Flames that forced him to retire. So yeah, after he could no longer move his neck and spent a year out of hockey (plus missed much of the two seasons prior) somehow he wasn't able to pull a Lemieux and come back and dominate.
