Rookie status issue

Hi, Im in the year 2021 with Vegas and i noticed Carter Hart (not sure if its just him or some other issue) ended up winning back-to-back Calder Memorial Trophies. The first with 16 games played, .901 SV% and 1 SO, next season was 68GP .918SV% and 10SO.. 16 games played doesnt take away the rookie status but i believe this isnt a possibility in the NHL.

Yeah, that sounds like an issue with Calder awards criteria for goalies needing a bit of adjustment. Technically, I think it's possible for this to happen, since there's nothing in the rules that says it can't be won twice, but nobody with a GP total that low would get it.
