Why? Panarin's PPG were just shy of 1 in 80 games and McD's were just north of 1 in 45 games. McD didn't even play long enough to hit the rookie wall so odds are his pace would have declined a at least a little bit had played closer to a full season.

Speculation... "Rookie wall."

Come on, dude, we both know who the more talented player is and he's also five years younger. Again, McDavid's GP costs him the award.

that may not go over well with oilers fans... they have already had the fittings for the 3 stanley cup rings they are going to win

Don't confuse us with the Leafs and their new dynamic duo of Stamkos / Matthews

The award isn't given to who is thought to be the best player; it is given to the player that had the best season, who is clearly Panarin.
- Snowblind

I've never argued that Connor unequivocally deserves the award. Stop arguing what isn't being argued. Jesus, you troll the oilers when there's nothing to troll


If the voters wanna give the award for more games played, I have no real issue as I know who the best rookie is beyond any shadow of a doubt. And I know Connor runs away with it if he plays 60. But he didn't. Oh well then I guess

Mcdavid should win the calder imo.

mcdavid 19 years old
Gostisbehere 23 years old
Panarin 24 years old

I get that ghost and Panarin are technically rookies but if they are that good at 19 in the nhl its a different story.

Let's see where mcdavid is in 4-5 years. Age has be a factor.

You chodes should actually watch McDavid play... actually you Leaf turds should know just how good he is seeing as he not only torched your team for five points in one game but Leaf nation collectively lost their poop when the Leafs didn't win the lottery.

McDavid is from my home (frank)ing town. I GUARANTEE that knew about and watched McDavid YEARS before you did!

The award is for the best player under 25 years old in their first NHL season. Beyond that, age is irrelevant to the award. No one is debating who the best player will be in the years to come.

Mcdavid wins based on age. Could those guys do what mcdavid did at 18-19 years old in the nhl?

I don't need to cause the evidence isn't there. That's the proof.

That's why you need to back your claim up to show otherwise
Wow


Dunno, depends on what they do this summer

There is a huge age gap though. We're not talking 6 months or a year. These guys are 4/5 years older.

Leafs don't make turd. They're inanimate.
