Calder Trophy deep dive: Connor Bedard’s the favorite, but who can challenge him?

On a brand new episode of The Athletic Hockey Show Prospect Series, Max, Corey, and FloHockey’s Chris Peters deep dive into the 2023-24 NHL Calder Trophy pool of competitors, and discuss the frontrunners like Connor Bedard, Logan Cooley, and Adam Fantilli, defensemen who could be in the mix like Luke Hughes and Brock Faber, as well as guys like Devon Levi, Matthew Poitras, Fraser Minten, and others who could have big impacts on their respective clubs throughout the season.

Plus, to close things out, the guys evaluate whether the once-vaunted Los Angeles Kings prospect pool has lived up to expectations or not.
