I think Perry's 2011. 2011 was a much better season in terms of Art Ross competition than 2015.

Four players scored 90+ points in 2011 while no one hit the 90 point mark in 2015. The NHL's scoring rate in terms of goals per game across the League wasn't that much higher in 20111 than in 2015 (the difference was only 0.12 GPG). Perry had worse offensive support as well.

The guy who won the hart.

It's close but probably Perry. Points are about even given the scoring environments and Perry's star linemate was hurt for 1/3 of the year, and in general the Ducks weren't nearly as offensively focused as the Stars

Give me Corey Perry.

Benn's because of the way he won it. And because I'm a Stars fan and that was our brightest moment in quite some time

Perry's 2011 where he singlehandedly willed the Ducks to the playoffs in March.

Scoring was actually pretty similar (.14 gpg difference) but I agree that the big difference is that Perry's team wasn't running and gunning. Plus, Benn put up a ton of points to win the scoring title in his last 5 games after his team was already eliminated.

Kind of like Benn did when he was the Art Ross

Why yes they did, i was eluding that Benn carried the team single-handedly when Seguin went down with an injury from the cheap shot from Kulikov.

Carried them where though? To 6th in their division?

Perry. Because his season actually helped his team make the playoffs. Benn's Stars sucked pretty much all year, and he racked up a lot of points near the end when his team was out and their sole focus seemed to be to get him his points.
