Rob_Zepp Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 You see it every year, even Calder winners are susceptible - have a brilliant rookie year and take NHL by storm/surprise and the following year all the things that "worked" now don't and it becomes a long year and people start to question the player, confidence fades etc. Happens every year. For this coming season, of the top Calder vote receivers, who is it most likely to happen to? Add some thoughts to your voting if you are so inclined. Seems to be one of the most predictable things each year - for some reason the rookie season is hard to replicate for many (in fact, can become their best career season). League figures them out? Who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cramarossa Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Tkachuk. Feel like he was riding his liney's coattails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Not that I would pick him, but no Laine as an option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RetroCanuck Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Stetcher. Have a feeling he's going to have a season like Hutton did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glory_Days Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Yeah, how come no Laine??? Just an oversight? For me, I picked Murray. I think not having Fleury there as a safety net will effect him mentally, maybe not a lot, but see it happen with young goalies all the time, they play very good but when their team gets rid of "the guy" and they have to shoulder the entire burden, they struggle and falter a bit.

D-Money Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Provorov. The coach will use his sophomore year to beat him into submission, like he did Ghost-bear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happens every year and to many so thought it would be an interesting topic. No different than predicting teams that go up or down. Curious too to see one player "running away with it" so far.

Yup, it was and Laine was added. For those wanting a Canuck there, sorry but none were in the top of the Calder voting. That is what this thread is about.

Glory_Days Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I wonder if Laine might be due for a regression? Wonder what his shooting % was, he has a wicked shot, but if was crazy high, he could regress in goals potentially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 Laine might, he had a really hot start last year. One of Toronto's kids I bet my money on. Hard to say honestly. Hopefully none of them slump though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.Am.Ironman Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I think people around here are just hopeful that MT regresses. In all likelihood it will be one of Nylander, Murray or Werenski imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am personally not sure he won't follow in his Dad's footsteps - hopefully for the Flames that doesn't include off-season food issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
