I was stunned they gave it to Sedin. Not that he wasn't great, but I expected one of the super-duper-stars to get it. how refreshing

I thought Jim Howard deserved the Calder, though i may have a slight bias

I think they made the right pick, going with Myers for the Calder. This having no bias whatsoever, lol.
