I suppose if the league (for whatever asshatted reason) deemed it to (retroactively) be an exhibition, then the stats should not count.

I think it's the other way around. It was an exhibition game later called a regulation game, and I wouldn't necessarily say that happened in 1890. There was never a scheduled game for September 18th in Canton, OH or between Cleveland and Pittsburgh. The two teams played those games on Sept 15, 16 and 17 as well.
