Odds for Top Calder Trophy Contenders
Here are some notes on the movement for the 2025 Calder odds:
- [Apr 3] Lane Hutson’s odds have strengthened to -1000 as he continues to lead all rookies with 59 points (5 goals, 54 assists), establishing a near-insurmountable lead in the Calder race. Celebrini remains second at +1000, with Michkov at +1200 and Wolf falling to +15000.
- [Mar 30] Hutson has officially taken over as the Calder favorite at -130, with Celebrini dropping to +105 as the defenseman’s historic rookie campaign continues to impress voters.
- [Mar 27] The race tightens as Hutson’s odds improve to -110, nearly even with Celebrini at -120, while Wolf remains a distant third at +1800.
- [Mar 21] Celebrini maintains his edge with -145 odds, though Hutson continues to gain ground at +110. Wolf’s chances fade to +1900 despite his strong goaltending for Calgary.
- [Mar 1] Lane Hutson’s exceptional play for Montreal has dramatically shortened his odds from +1000 to +250 as he challenges Celebrini (-200) for the Calder Trophy with his elite puck-moving abilities.
- [Feb 15] Macklin Celebrini strengthens his position as Calder favorite at -220 after reaching the 40-point mark faster than any other rookie this season. Michkov falls to +600 after a scoring drought.
- [Jan 15] Celebrini has overtaken Michkov as the Calder favorite at -150 following an impressive stretch of play, with the Flyers’ rookie dropping to +300 amid inconsistent ice time under coach Tortorella.
- [Dec 1] Michkov’s odds have shortened to +200 as he leads all rookies in scoring, while San Jose’s Celebrini at +400 and Dallas’ Stankoven at +500 remain firmly in the race.
- [Oct 15] The Calder race has begun with Philadelphia’s Matvei Michkov opening as the early favorite at +250 following his strong start. San Jose’s first-overall pick Macklin Celebrini sits at +300, while Montreal’s Lane Hutson is further back at +1000.
- [Sept 1]: Preseason Calder odds have Philadelphia’s Matvei Michkov (+500) and San Jose’s Macklin Celebrini (+500) as co-favorites, with Dallas’ Logan Stankoven (+600), Anaheim’s Cutter Gauthier (+600), and Montreal’s Lane Hutson (+1000) rounding out the top contenders.
Notable Calder Trends
- A forward has won NHL Rookie of the Year in 10 of the past 14 years, though Hutson would be the third defenseman in the last five seasons if he wins.
- No goalie has won the Calder since Steve Mason (Columbus) in 2009; goalies often take longer to develop in the NHL than skaters.
- No team has produced back-to-back Rookie of the Year winners since the 68-69 Bruins (Bobby Orr & Derek Sanderson).
