Hear me out ,
To be considered a rookie, a player must not have played in more than 25 NHL games in any preceding seasons, nor in six or more NHL games in each of any two preceding seasons. Any player at least 26 years of age (by September 15th of that season) is not considered a rookie. ~ NHL.Com
So lets just say player X was injured for all but 25 games in season 1. If this person produced at an unseen rate (i.e 3pts/game) and potted 75 points in these games, then that would surely be the best rookie campaign (of all time, no doubt) and would possibly garner a calder (Yes IK they only played 25 games but 75 points!?)
And then the season after (also being considered a rookie), they put like 100+ pts over 82 games (which would also 100% get them the calder).
Point is, could this happen and would the NHL do something to stop this crazy scenario?
