He's having a historic season and should run away with it. From the Athletic.

The Selke Trophy has been a write-off for the entire season and that hasn’t changed. It’s still Patrice Bergeron’s world, we’re just living in it.
The “DEF’ is essentially his defensive rating, which is his ability to suppress five-on-five expected and actual goals, as well as shorthanded expected goals. The way to read it is that Bergeron is essentially plus-26 from his defensive abilities alone — an absolutely massive number. It’s a result of the Bruins allowing just 1.41 expected goals against per 60 with Bergeron on the ice (first), 1.65 actual goals against (22nd), 0.44 expected goals against per 60 fewer relative to teammates (10th) and 0.61 actual goals against per 60 fewer (25th). That he’s putting up such incredible defensive results on an elite defensive team is remarkable, creating an enormous impact that isn’t even close to being matched.

That said Backlund comes up 3rd in his rankings and Lindholm 7th but they are way behind Bergeron. Also believe it or not Rasmus Andersson is ranked 7th in their Norris rankings ahead of Fox which is a little surprising. He's having a good season but I didn't realize that good overall.
