Hedman has been an elite defenseman for a couple years, and a Norris candidate for one or two.
Doughty has been elite for most of his career, a perennial Norris candidate, and has - you know - drank from the chalice a couple of times.
Plus, salaries keep going up. If Hedman were negotiating this summer, after winning the Norris, his number would be much closer to $10M.
