Talk:Calder Memorial Trophy

message: As far as I can see on the NHL website and some others, no calder was awarded in 04-05 and the 2005-2006 trophy was not awarded yet. Please wait for the NHL to annouce it before handing Ovechkin the trophy...

message: What exactly are the stipulations for a "Rookie in the NHL"?  Gretzky did not win in his first season because of prior professional experience, whereas Ovechkin won, despite playing pro in Russia.  Furthermore, Ken Dryden won it after winning the Stanley Cup and Conn Smythe with the Canadiens.

message: Can we please add a picture of Bryan Berard here? There is not even a picture of him on his own main page. 
I have a picture below that was taken the same year he won the Calder:

Bryan Berard is an inspiration to anyone with a disability.

message: Shouldn't the article state what the eligibility requirements are?
I believe you can't have played more than 30 games in any previous season or 6 games in more than one previous season. There's also an age maximum which was added after Sergei Makarov controversially won it in his age 30 season.
(I don't think there's a minimum number of games but I don't know 100% for sure, in fact that's what I came here to check! It's often claimed Dryden didn't win a year earlier because of some minimum he didn't meet but I'm pretty sure that isn't true.)
These are among the most obvious things for this article to include, but none of it is explicitly stated anywhere in the current article (which would be a stub if not for the list, frankly). The 30-game part is sort of implied in the odd digression about Belfour but that's weird too. What's so notable about Belfour's season that it warrants a paragraph in this very scanty article, whereas other players who had more of an impact on the award's history (Makarov) or are more notable for other reasons (Dryden winning the Conn Smythe before the Calder, why Gretzky didn't win) are nowhere to be seen.
I swear this article used to be much more in-depth and include this information. Where did it go? 50.72.61.76 (talk) 11:18, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: What's notable about Belfour's season is that some editor sought to include it; nothing weirder than that.  I agree that the eligibility requirements should be in the article, but one factor is that they've changed, and more than once.  I'll address a few of them.
