Was Werenski?

Bouchard: 82:21-74-95/+25
Werenski: 75:22-59-81/+7

The Norris has been a scoring trophy since forever, except when it doesn't please the voters (see: Tyson Barrie).

Bouchard had more GWG (5 v 2), more OT goals (3 v 0), a higher overall SH%, nevermind his advanced stats.

Also Werenski went 2-4-6 through his last 13 games. Bouchard was 2-15-17 through the same period. There's a narrative that he choked on the home stretch and was a contributor to his team missing the playoffs, which is a bit hard to dispute, though obviously it's a team sport and not his fault alone.

Bouchard played 147 mins PK, with 7.3 GA/60.
Werenski played 91 mins PK with 8.56 GA/60

Bouchard played 298 mins of PP, with 12.48 GF/60
Werenski played 227 mins of PP, with 7.65 GF/60

At 5v5:

Bouchard was 55.4% CF, 56.4% SF, 57.6% GF and 54.1% xGF
Werenski was 53.5% CF, 53.1% SF, 52.5% GF, and 53.7% xGF.

In addition to all of this, the Norris over the past 40 years (with some exceptions, sure) has been awarded to the defensive scoring leader (right or wrong is irrelevant).

I understand why he won, but the fact Evan finished 4th given the above shows more about the PHWA voters than it does about the players.

If the Norris was a all around d-man trophy as it actually says on the tin, Seider would have won it by a landslide.

So considering above, which "all around" catagory is Werenski beating Bouchard in?

FWIW, I think Werenski was probably the right choice, but Bouchard finishing 4th is a joke.

@JesseGranger_ He does realize he’s supposed to get hurt BEFORE the playoffs then miraculously come back right?

@OilyBigDog @citchmook Twitter doesn't have the brain cells to comprehend that all good players make bad plays. They only see Bouchard plays from October and think that's his whole game but don't want to give him credit for the many many elite plays he makes.

[x - Qam @MrQAM_]

Wait... you're telling me that Bouchard ISN'T the only one that makes bad plays?🤯🤯

[Oily Big Dog @OilyBigDog]

@citchmook These ones from THIS season are my favorite

[Top Tier Hockey @TopTierPucks]

For the casuals who still think Bouchard can’t play defense, he had the highest EV Defense WAR out of any Norris Finalist while also leading them all in PK minutes. Why would you send out a defensive liability to PK that much?

[Top Tier Hockey @TopTierPucks]

“Evan Bouchard didn’t deserve the Norris”

- Evan Bouchard has better defensive metrics than all of Norris finalists
- Evan Bouchard led the Norris finalists by a combined 51 points
- Evan Bouchard faced the 10th most difficult competition in the entire league
- Evan Bouchard played more PK relative to this teammates than any of the Norris Finalists
- Evan Bouchard has a Goal Dif On Ice vs Off Ice higher than all Norris finalists combined by a 41 goal margin
- Evan Bouchard played with the worst goaltending in the NHL and the worst defensive system
- Evan Bouchard had less giveaways leading to goals than the other finalists combined
- Evan Bouchard was lights out to end the season while some of the finalists ghosted
- Evan Bouchard should be the Norris winner but he’s not because of Eastern pundits and morons who watch Tiktok Clips to base their perception of a player

If you believe he’s not deserving of the Norris, that says something about your hockey knowledge. Biggest litmus test in hockey

Erik Karlsson in his Norris year:
25/76/101 -26
Evan Bouchard this year:
21/74/95 +25

Both finished 11th in total points in their respective seasons.

Any voter that voted for Karlsson should’ve voted for Bouchard this year

[x - Qam @MrQAM_]

The Bouchard disrespect is insane. The voters must not watch western games only clips that go viral on twitter from October.
