Gabriel Landeskog was humble after winning the 2011-12 Calder Trophy.
Landeskog asserted that fellow finalist Ryan Nugent-Hopkins would have won the award if he stayed healthy all season. Nugent-Hopkins was limited to 62 games in 2011-12. Landeskog is arguably not as exciting a player to watch as Nugent-Hopkins, but Landeskog brings a lot to the table even when he doesn't have the puck. Landeskog had 52 points, a plus-20 rating, 219 hits, and 58 blocked shots in 82 games.
