Who will win rookie of the year and who is more "deserving"?

faber!

I agree. It'll go to Bedard. Hockey Writers vote on it. He's made a lot of money for them. Yet, Connor deserves it anyway Thanks for reviewing the rookie defensemen. Faber looks good. Other Defensemen further down the list look promising also They're stats arent as flashy. When they make a rookie mistake, we notice it more because it often leads to goals. When a forward rookie errs, a non- goal doesn't matter as much to fans. My black & gold biased Calder vote? Justin Brazeau! 15 games 4 goals 7 points +6 😃 Naw... Its gotta be Bedard. The press is annoying but he's a good kid. Serious skills. got his Prince Glass Jaw christening. So everybody's staying back from him the rest of the season, they'll be back at him next year. Hey, go swing a boot at Charlie Coyle's knees to see which one he protects when he flinches - I think he's injured again. He was under the weather a couple weeks ago, but doesn't seem like himself last few games. I know hes gotta have his perfect attendance. Speaking of perfect attendance - you've only missed 4-5 Patrice Bergeron games? Holy jumpin'! I don't even think Patrice's wife & parents have seen that many of his games! I like the longer podcast, I can work, get something done while listening. ☕ break time, I check out your visuals and come here to bug people. I make note of the players & games you talk about and watch highlights later Works for me! Thanks! Yeah, when he gets back from road trip, go kick Charlie in the knee to see what happens. 😆

Timo Meier with the Sharks last year before the trade: Frank Vatrano effect or no?

[@bentalkshockey9393]

I don't think so. Timo Meier has played with some solid teammates and was still able to produce. I think it was an awkward fit in New Jersey at first but he finished the season strong. That question made me think about it for a bit! Thanks!

@@bentalkshockey9393 Yeah, keeping Zetterlund and (especially) Sharangovich may have been better.

Anyone in their right mind would pick Bedard.

@@travzimmerman1340 Because I'm always right and Bedard will win the rookie of the year. Count on it.

​@@travzimmerman1340last year they gave it to Matty Beniers, a Massachusetts kid. NOT Canadian Bedard's from Vancouver BC #1 draft pick Playing for Hawks, in the USA Not Canada 😆 Canadian fans are more "passionate" so something like this might be a big deal, if a Canadian rookie hockey player gets the Calder, they ALL earned it cuz there's nothing else to do in Canada. Unless you own a school bus,then you can enter the local Saturday night school bus derby. They do that off-hockey season of course. ✌️
