Was Mike Gartner underrated?

How many other players have their career rank in a major category (goals - 8th all time) higher than all but one single season finish (5th, 9th, 9th, 9th, 10th are best finishes).

That would have to be extremely rare and make a clear comparable difficult.

Had a look at Dave Andreychuk. Currently sits at 15th in goals scored all-time, however he retired 11th. Has seasons finishing 4th, 9th and 12th in league goal scoring, so he clears it.

Edit: Shanahan, Selänne, Jagr and Ovechkin are the players who’ve surpassed Andreychuk since.
