Led all NHL D with 18 goals, averaged 23:23 a night, took 173 shots in just 56 games, led all NHL defensemen with 17.3 expected goals above replacement (per Evolving-Hockey).
If I had a Norris vote, it'd go 1) Chychrun, 2) Makar, 3) Weegar. No doubt in my mind Chychrun should be in the top-four for Canada. Chabot really isn't in his ballpark.
With Hedman having one of the worst years of his career, I think the field is definitely a lot more open. It's time for Chychrun to start getting more praise for just how good he is.
