The 2009 Rookie of the Year runner-up says the skill level of the 2022 Calder Trophy runner-up is ‘off the charts’
December 29, 2022 at 3:44 p.m.The former Ducks star who finished second in 2009 Rookie of the Year voting was on the phone and the topic du jour was Ducks center Trevor Zegras, who was runner-up for the same Calder Trophy in 2022.
To review: Ryan scored 31 goals and had 57 points in 64 games in 2008-09, his first full NHL season. Zegras had 23 goals and 61 points in 75 games last season. Only one player from the 2019 NHL draft class – No. 1 pick Jack Hughes of the New Jersey Devils – has more points than Zegras. Hughes has 147 points in 201 games. Zegras, who was taken ninth in the 2019 draft, has 10 goals and 27 points in 36 games this season.
Ryan, the No. 2 pick in the 2005 draft behind the Penguins’ Sidney Crosby, doesn’t remember much attention when he hit 100 points in his career. It was, of course, a wildly different era, especially with a crusty coach, Randy Carlyle, at the helm in Anaheim. Zegras had been reliably consistent for the rebuilding Ducks until the final games before the holiday break. He went without a point in four consecutive games – his longest drought of the season – before breaking out of the mini-slump against the Golden Knights.
