Gretzky, Liut Add More Hardware: By Aaron G.

Dale Hawerchuk was the easy winner of the Calder Trophy as HFHL's Rookie of the Year. The Flyers stand-out put up 24 goals and 69 points to earn the honours.

Al MacInnis was the runner-up, with 10 goals and 42 points from the Chicago blueline, while a pair of Steve's in Vancouver probably split votes from each other, since it wasn't clear who was even the best rookie in Vancouver, led alone in the league. Yzerman finished third while Larmer and his rookie leading 32 goals was fourth in the vote.
