I would love to see the data (if any) behind anyone arguing for Makar over Hughes for Norris at this point.

If I was a betting man, I wager a good portion of the people who argue that way thought Stamkos was going to be a PPG player without Kucherov this season and lead the Preds to a top 3 spot in their division are also on the Makar>Hughes train.

Not a knock to the guy either as they're clearly the top 2 in the league, but Quinn looks like when you're in be a player mode in an EA video game and decide the AI is borderline useless so you'll do it yourself, setting up open nets that no idiot could miss.

Delusional Avs fans who worship the ice Makar skates on.

Hughes and Makar are both great players.

Basically whoever is leading in points at the end of the season is likely to win.

That may be true, but in context Makar plays with 2 forwards that are top 5 in scoring. Quinn's teammates are nowhere near that quality. In terms of offense, even if Quinn is slightly behind in points, he should still takes the advantage just by the fact he plays with lower scoring teammates.

I'm not sure the voters will see it that way, but that is how I see it anyways. That isn't even considering that Quinn is the better defensive player this season as well. The only edge for Makar right now is that he kills penalties and throws a few hits. Other than that I think Quinn is the better player right now.

**I'm not trying to put down Makar, who is an awesome player and is definitely top 3 in his position, but Quinn just has a better season so far.
