I have a theory that sons of former NHLers peak even earlier for what I feel are obvious reasons.
Going to be tough for any Canadian team to compete with states that have no income tax. It's better than it was pre-cap.

Peak is a funny term though. I think wrong.
Kids join the league. Score like crazy. Then realize they don’t win that way and score less.
Are they declining? Hell no. Your team will win when the chosen ones score 30 less points but give up far fewer chances and goals.
That’s maturing. Not ‘peaking’.
