Well I think the three Cups did that.
Goodness no.Would a Norris cement Kristopher as a Hall of Fame defenseman?
Why not?

Chabot as well right now. What a great narrative he is writing this season.Not going to happen. Reilly likely is ahead of him.

Letang is pretty mediocre right? That stat package tells me he's basically an old man's Thomas Chabot, and Cahbot is at least producing more for his age range. I mean, Letang still has Crosby, Malkin, Guentzel, Kessel...I guess sure, give him a few Norris votes? Rielly and Chabot are doing more with less though.

Right now he is playing like it. But yeah, I imagine that even if he does continue to be among the top blue-line scoring leaders and put up a great season, the Norris voters still will see him as needing to continue to "pay his dues". Being on a non-playoff team hurts his chances as well, although the narrative of stepping into Karlsson's shoes helps.No way in hell Chabot is top three.
Nope. Chabot has been great, no way in hell they give a rookie a Norris.

I agree with the basic premise that typically defensemen have to develop a reputation first, which he didn't as a rookie, but there are some examples of players winning or getting significant votes in their first breakout years. Continuing the comparisons, Karlsson is an example
