Wolf is already elite at his position. Might drag terrible Flames team to the playoffs. If he does, give him the Calder. Should get Vezina votes too.

For what it's worth, Frank Seravalli said today that if the Flames get into the playoffs he'll make Wolf his #1 choice in the Calder vote.

As a Habs fan I would not complain at all if Wolf won. Could maybe get a handful of Hart votes tbh

Only thing i can see holding wolf back is games played. If he can get 50 while keeping up his play he has as good as chance as anyone. 45 starts isn’t enough in a crop like this

Should be possible, his season % of games played is 60%. But i am going out on a limb and saying that number has been brought up from a much lower number from the 1st half of the season to today. So he should be starting 12 of the last 19 games, which is exactly what he needs to get to 50.

But i would not be surprised to see him starting like 14-15 of those final 19.

As someone who hasn’t watched a single hockey game this year, with my entire view based on the arguments in this thread, the last few people arguing for wolf have started winning me over. Honestly celebrini vs Hutson seems close to a wash, might as well give it to a goalie while there’s a worthwhile candidate. He seems to be actually good at his position, with no “for a rookie” caveat.

Give it to Wolfe , just to spare us the drama what a rookie crop!

 

[Frank Drebin]

Not that im a huge fan of craig button but he had hutson and wolf as his finalists, Hutson winning. Hes a pretty huge Hutson homer though gushes about him every game

Ridiculously good Calder-year this year.
Forward, defense and goalie covered, and all playing at really high levels of the game overall.

As long as Lane Hutson gets nominated, I’ll be very happy. Other than that, all 4 candidates are deserving:

Lane Hutson, Macklin Celebrini, Matvei Michkov and Dustin Wolf
