All J. Staal

from David Amber at ESPN,

In this week’s Facing Off, the 18-year-old Penguins rookie gives his take on the Chris Simon suspension, tells us which of the four Staal brothers is the best NHL player and explains what it’s like riding shotgun with Sid the Kid....
Q: Who deserves the Calder, you, Malkin or Paul Stastny out in Colorado?
A: I think Malkin. He has done everything he can, everything possible to win it. I think he is definitely the man.
Q: Why not Jordan Staal?
A: [Laughs] I don’t know. I would love to win that thing, but I don’t have the numbers he has. Of course, we have been put in different roles, but I think the way Malkin has been playing, taking the pressure off Sid, he has been huge.

Great interview. These guys are all so talented, and yet so humble. I hope that continues through their career as they get better and better. I’m surprised that he didn’t mention his nickname in this article at all - Colby Armstrong calls him “Gronk” like the comic character. Was a great segment in between periods a couple games back on this.
