Current Favorites

Quinn Hughes (Vancouver Canucks): After finishing 9th in Norris Trophy during the 2022-23 season, Hughes came back and won it for the 2023-24 season. For the first time in his career, Hughes recorded double-digit goals with 17 while also dishing out a career-best 75 assists to give him 92 points on the season. Following that banner year, Hughes started the 2024-25 season on a bit slower note compared to last season, but he has since picked it up, as he's recorded 59 points from 45 assists and 14 goals.

Cale Makar (Colorado Avalanche): Unfortunately for the rest of the NHL, Cale Makar has continued to elevate his game. During the 2023-24 season, Makar posted a career-high 90 points with 69 assists and 21 goals. Not to mention, the Avalanche star also recorded a career-high 148 blocks, as his previous career-high was 110, so with numbers like that, it was unsurprising to see him open as the favorite across the board. To start the 2024-25 season, that dominance has continued, as Makar is up to 58 points while being tied for 14th in the league with 39 assists.

Zach Werenski (Columbus Blue Jackets): Werenski was not in the top ten on oddsboards for this award until his stretch of phenomenal play in January. In 14 games on the month, Werenski recorded at least a point in 11 of them, bringing his point total to 57 on 40 assists and 17 goals through 53 games.
