Sorry for the delay, I didn't have time to get to this until now.
Here's the update.
The New Legends are the people that VilleN named.
The Old Legends are Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux, Joe Sakic, Steve Yzerman, and Jaromir Jagr.
The legends never appear to hit their peak because, as you'd expect, they all occurred at different points in their careers.
This is an indexed measure to account for various eras, so a person/group's most productive season is indexed to 1, and all other seasons are some number between 0 and 1. The chart has been adjusted for COVID and lockout shortened seasons, but not for injuries, as those tend to occur more frequently as players age.
Unplayed seasons have been omitted.
