An interesting piece of trivia...
Last summer, Bedard, Carlsson and Fantilli went 1-2-3 in draft. Currently, they are 1st, 6th and 4th in scoring race, respectively.
1. Connor Bedard….....13 -- 9 -- 4 -- 13 (2023 1st)
2. Logan Cooley…........15 -- 1 -- 10 -- 11
3. Pavel Mintyukov…...16 -- 1 -- 9 -- 10
4. Adam Fantilli….........16 -- 4 -- 5 -- 9 (2023 3rd)
4. Luke Evangelista…...15 -- 1 -- 8 -- 9
6. Leo Carlsson…..........11 -- 6 -- 2 -- 8 (2023 2nd)
6. Bobby Brink…...........13 -- 3 -- 5 -- 8
6. Luke Hughes…..........14 -- 1 -- 7 -- 8
6. Marco Rossi…...........15 -- 5 -- 3 -- 8
6. Matthew Knies….......15 -- 4 -- 4 -- 8
6. Matthew Poitras…....15 -- 4 -- 4 -- 8
In NHL history, only ten #1 picks have gone on to win the Calder Trophy the following year (eleven if you include Ovechkin who was drafted in 2004 but won in first season, 2005-06).
Only three times have #1 and #2 gone in same spots in Calder race the following year (most recent being 2016-17 when Matthews and Laine finished 1-2).
Here's the question.....Can anyone name the one year when picks 1-2-3 went in same order for Calder in following year?
