Kevin Allen: NHL Boasts Another Quality Rookie Class for the 2022-23 season Plenty of defenseman have a shot at the Calder

If Swayman barely got a sniff at the Calder voting last year then your #4 pick is equally far fetched.

Murray was a crackhead... but having Madden do the draft was smart...

Z / Drysdale / McTavish and Zellweger... And Gaucher / Warren and Luneau holy smokes batman...

McTavish 25G / 30 or so Apples... 60+ pts.

So no mention of Shane Wright or Juraj Slafkovsky?

To be clear, I don't think they will win, but certainly have a higher liklihood than several others on the list. Especially #8. Simon Edvinsson is not Mo Seider. His ceiling is way lower. Seider is a 1D. Edvinsson is a 3/4 guy. Think Jay Bouwmeester. But sounds like you've bought into some bigger hype. Good blog.
