He deserves strong consideration for the Calder Trophy this year as the NHL's top rookie.All this and more on today's Locked On NHL Podcast with Rachel Donner and Gil Martin.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! SelectQuoteGet the right life insurance for you, for less, at SelectQuote.com/LOCKEDONNHL.  GametimeDownload the Gametime app, create an account, and use code LOCKEDONNHL for $20 off your first purchase.
