Here's a tip that you may not of thought of for releasing tightness in your calves. Use the roller as the therapist and push-rolling it VERY slowy down your calf - using the weight of your leg as the load is SO effective.

This method of roling will help you get to those trigger points nice and evenly. Spend more time on it rather than a quick few minutes. Let's face it, massages don't last 3 minutes, so try to spend some time on it. Less agressive, more time is the key.

You can also get medially, laterally, and work on the peroneals. Adding in a bit of ankle ROM also free's up the soft tissues to help with better ankle movement for those achilels injuries and ankle sprains.

Happy rolling!
