Sabres' Eichel Preseason Pick for Calder Trophy

By Mike G. Morreale - NHL.com Staff Writer

Connor McDavid and Jack Eichel, the first two players picked at the 2015 NHL Draft, are considered by many to be the frontrunners for the Calder Memorial Trophy as NHL rookie of the year.

McDavid and Eichel are incredible talents, so predicting who has the edge as a rookie may come down to health and who can withstand the rigors of an 82-game season. Eichel said he added 10 pounds during his offseason training to get up to 205 pounds on his 6-foot-2 frame.

Another advantage Eichel might have is how quickly he bonded with his older Boston University teammates last season on the way to leading them in almost every statistical category while playing against bigger and older players.

It will be close, but Eichel is the preseason choice to win the Calder Trophy.
