He's a Barrie good defenseman
Get out.
One of the reasons our defense has been good is because of Aaron's play, Tallon said. He's played like a real pro. He's been as good a player as we've had and it's been terrific watching him.
Nice little tid bit from NHL.com called "Tallon thinks Ekblad will stick with the Panthers."

Does anyone think Ekblad has a legitimate shot at the Calder this year?
He needs to start racking up points to be considered seriously. Although his play has been great. He's a defenseman playing very good defense in his rookie year. However, these awards seem to base a lot on how many points a player has.
Wow do you guys ever have a stud on your hands in Ekblad!
Would it be far-fetched to insinuate that he is already the best player on the Panthers?
I think he is a definite Calder contender at this point. There is going to be lots of spicy competition; but he is right in there. He makes a difference in so many ways.
he's good thats for sure. great considering his age and the position he plays. he's makes a couple of mistakes now and again but it's expected. as some peeps have already mentioned, i don't think he'll be a calder candidate unless he racks up 35ish points this season.
