Some of the Globe and Mail hockey writers answer the following question…
Which National Hockey League rookie will have the biggest impact this season?
ALLAN MAKITake a pen. Jot down this name: Oliver Ekman-Larsson. When your buddies ask you which NHL rookie is going to have a whiz-bang season, tell them it’ll be the Phoenix Coyotes’ first-year defenceman Ekman-Larsson.
Yes, there are more celebrated rookies out there (Taylor Hall, Tyler Seguin), but at 19 Ekman-Larsson comes with size (6 foot 2, 176 pounds) and a polished game.

“Washington Capitals’ goaltender Michal Neuvirth qualifies for Calder Trophy on a technicality:”
I believe they all make it on a technicality, some are just farther from the dividing line than others.
