He has had a great career so far with his regular season points per game a little better than what he accomplished in real life. In real life he had 1232 points in 1495 games. In compares after 924 sim games so far he has 1034 points.
Here is a year by year comparison of games played and total regular season points vs real life. Right now (end of 3-94) is where he seems to be hitting a new peak in the sim compared to real life when his career numbers started to slide right around the same time- although an injury in 93-94 irl and the lockout impacted his totals.

It is in the playoffs where the sim Phil Housley has really made his mark. The screenshots below show his regular season stats, playoff stats and where he ranks (11th) all-time in career playoff points.
Housley has just been such a clutch playoff performer in this sim as he has averaged about 1.5 points per game. He isn't quite Gretzky/Lemieux good for points but there are very few others and no defensemen, not Coffey or even Brad Park who had an amazing career, that can rival the sim Phil Housley for playoff production.
It will be interesting to see if he keeps piling up the numbers and if so there may be another Cup or two in the Sabres near future.
