One of the first text messages #CBJ Zach Werenski received after his Norris Trophy win became public was from former #CBJ and current #VegasBorn coach John Tortorella, who played a huge role in Werenski's young career / development.

Great stuff here from @cotsonika on a really cool surprise for Zach Werenski and the @BlueJacketsNHL

[Nick Cotsonika @cotsonika]

You're not supposed to make yourself part of the story in this job, but it was a lot of fun -- and an honor -- to play a small role in surprising Zach Werenski with the Norris Trophy. Congrats to him and his family on a heck of a year.
