I'm not a big fan of the crazy deals the Wild gave Parise and Suter but if any defenseman deserves that money it's Ryan Suter. Good to see he's finally getting the recognition he deserves after propping up Weber over all these years. The Wild don't score goals while Montreal scored a lot so just looking at +/- is not really fair to Suter.

But it's not the Hart, it's the Norris, and Subban had the better year as a D-man.
