Any surprises here? Good on Karlsson!
I’m certainly biased as a Sabres fan, but I’m surprised Dahlin didn’t finish top five in Norris voting. He was a two way force all year, save a week or two where he was injured. The entire team pretty much revolves around him.
I’m surprised as well. However, his time will come. You guys have a great defenceman.

If they snubbed him this year like the year he lost to Due Doughty (that year he led the league is assists, not just as a defenseman, but overall) for being "too offensively minded, i’d’ve lost it.
Happy to see them recognize his absolutely ridiculous season on a bottom feeder team.
In my opinion there were no major surprises this year.
