Lane Hutson turned a quiet preseason price into one of the best rookie campaigns Montreal has seen in decades. The puck-moving defenseman climbed from a +1000 longshot in October to the runaway 2025 Calder Trophy winner by spring.

The Calder goes to the most proficient first-year player in the NHL each season. To qualify, a player can’t have appeared in more than 25 games in any single earlier pro campaign.

• [Jan 15] Celebrini has overtaken Michkov as the favorite at -150 following an impressive stretch, with the Flyers’ rookie dropping to +300 amid inconsistent ice time under coach Tortorella.
