NHL 24

The Calder Trophy is the NHL's version of Rookie of the Year, so this achievement must be done your first year of Be A Pro. This is the fastest way I found to do the achievement:

• Start a new Be A Pro Career
• Watch the EXACT SAME unskippable cut scene that has been in this game for at least four years running
• Create your character. You'll want to be a Center so you can get the puck as quickly as possible, even though you won't start as a Center you'll eventually get there in a couple of seasons. I highly recommend being a Sniper as it gives you a nice boost to shooting off the bat
• Start in the NHL
• Choose your team. It really doesn't matter who since you'll be playing a lot early on and doing everything yourself
• Game Settings
• Be A Pro Settings
• Period Length is up to you. I like to go 20 minutes periods so I can score as much as possible early on in the mode while quickly levelling myself up in the process
• Difficulty to Rookie
• Rules to Off
• Be A Pro Settings to Classic
• Be A Pro Simming Penalty to Off (VERY IMPORTANT!)
• Weekly Gained XP Reminder to Off
• Auto Save to On
• Back out a menu and select Advanced Settings
• Playoff Series Length to Single Knockout
• Back out a menu to Gameplay Sliders. Adjust everything to your favour while nerfing the CPU to 0. Be sure to read the descriptions, some sliders are reverse so you want some to be 0 you for and 100 for the CPU
• Back out two menus and Start Career
• Sim through the Preseason to the Regular Season, your stats don't count here so it's a waste of time
• Play, play, play and score, score, SCORE! Now a VERY IMPORTANT thing to note here is there is a 99% chance your Gameplay Sliders will have reset back to default settings since EA doesn't care whatsoever about fixing this mode. While in game, you'll have to change all your sliders again and now they should stay set for the rest of this achievement. I only had to change them once and they stayed the entire rest of my career, please let me know if you have a different experience
• What I did was played as much of the first season as I could stand, I ended up with 400 something goals. Some games you'll find a certain goalie is just a brick wall so after I got a few goals I would quit the game and let it sim the rest. You want to maximise your time at all costs
• You'll get periodic notifications about how you're doing in the Calder race, as long as you're scoring you'll be #1 by a large margin
• When you get to the Playoffs, turn Auto Save off and make a new save. You can either play or sim each playoff game, you have to win four the win the Stanley Cup. I always went with Sim Game, Simming the first two periods and playing the third if my team was losing
• After winning the Cup a few cutscenes and screens will follow, one of which will award you the Calder Trophy and the achievement.
