Chychrun Overlooked as Norris Trophy Balloting Ignores Goals Leader

Jakob Chychrun led all NHL defensemen in goals (26) and tallied 60 points in 80 games, yet he received zero votes on the 2026 Norris Trophy ballots. Zach Werenski won with 113 first-place votes. Chychrun’s production—23:20 of ice time and 18+ even-strength goals—made him the lone post-lockout defender with at least 18 such goals to earn zero Norris votes, a notable snub in a year with several 20-goal defenders receiving recognition. Capitals’ voters were not represented on the PHWA ballot.
