Thanks to our friends at quanthockey.com here is a partial answer to my question.

https://www.quanthockey.com/ahl/en/player-age/19-year-old-ahl-players.html

JJP has produced more points as a 19 year old then any other 19 year old player in AHL history with 64 ytd.  His pts per game of .928 is 9th.  Bergeron is 10th. Spezza at 1.25 is first.  Okposo was 21st at .8 pts/gp

Using their top 10 in pts/gp list, many went back to the AHL for some additional time.  Bergeron and Tomasino went to the NHL the following season.  3 guys, Holtz, JJP and Reichel are all still in their 19 year old seasons.  Nylander, Spezza and Vrana all went back for another year (Spezza because of the lockout) and Rantanen only played in 4 AHL games the next season.  Demita spent two more years mostly in the A.

From the AHL site:

JJ Peterka, Forward (Rochester Americans):
Buffalo’s second-round choice in the 2020 NHL Draft, JJ Peterka has amassed 25 goals and 39 assists in 69 games for Rochester this season, good for the league scoring lead among rookies. Peterka, who turned 20 in January, also ranks first among rookies and fifth overall with 219 shots on goal. The native of Munich, Germany, also made his NHL debut earlier this season, appearing in two games with the Sabres. Peterka’s 64 points are the most by an AHL player in his U20 season since Guy Chouinard had 80 points as a 19-year-old with Nova Scotia in 1975-76.

 

Jack Quinn, Forward (Rochester Americans):
Limited to 15 games during an injury-shortened first pro season, Jack Quinn has been one of the most dynamic players in the AHL in 2021-22, compiling 25 goals and 34 assists for 59 points in just 44 games with Rochester. The eighth overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft, Quinn has scored 10 power-play goals, a shorthanded marker and six game-winners on the season, and his 1.34 points-per-game average is third in the league behind only T.J. Tynan and Andrew Poturalski. A 20-year-old native of Ottawa, Ont., Quinn made his NHL debut in January and recorded a goal and an assist in two games with Buffalo.

 

From me:

These are impressive statistics.  I knew that both players were having good seasons in Rochester (excepting for Quinn's injury), but I had no idea how historically good their seasons have been, relative to their age.

Isn’t kind of interesting that looking at all 19 yr old AHL seasons ever, 4 of the top 9 PPG seasons  are from this season?
