The Art Ross and Richard aren't awards to judged, they are objective measures, they not real awards IMO, they are benchmarks.You're joking, right?
The Art Ross. The Rocket Richard. The Selke.
Poor forwards. There are just no awards for them.

The Selke? Maybe the dumbest award ever.
What is the MVP for forwards? The Hart, 'experts' judge the best.
Put in context your post is silly.
That’ll still put him 40 points behind your boy there in Edmonton.EK has a good shot this year, yeah I know the season hasn't started but if he tears the league a new one by putting up 80+ points like before, I think he will win the Hart. I think the media will even give it to him considering all the crap he's being going through since last year.
Points.

I dunno.In a league where a forward who puts up 100 points is a strong contender. What kind of performance would it take from a defenceman?
90 points? A +/- of 70? Win the Art Ross?
I'm looking for an exact statistical performance by a the defenceman that will guarantee the hart.
Writers judge best defenseman NorrisThe Irony.
Thats not how the Hart trophy works tho...
Writers judge best defenseman Norris
Writers judge best goalie Vezina
Writers should judge best forward in the Hart
I know... real hard concept to get your head around but it's the internet and people like me answer to people like you.
Pronger was an intimidating physical presence. When that style of play was essential.Unless those points lends you an Art Ross or substantially eclipses your (kinda weak-ish) teammates, then no. When Pronger won his Hart Lidström outscored him by 11 points.
What could/should give a defenseman a Hart Trophy is a strong two-way game and dragging your team to the playoffs. Something like that.
You probably also have to be a leadership type player in a kinda stereotypical old fashioned outgoing way, and not a quiet guy like Lidström or Leetch.
An interesting historical view is actually Leetch. 1992 his team wins the PT and his forward teammate gets the Hart while outscoring Leetch by a whopping 5 points. In 1993 Leetch misses half the season, and Rangers misses the playoffs. 1994 he’s back in full swing again and Rangers wins another PT. And the Cup. And Leetch wins the CS.

Fair enough, point stands that it's a group of knowledgeable people making a judgement of overall performance opposed to the Art Ross or Richard Trophy.Actually, the GMs vote for the Vezina not the writers.
Messier was better.Bourque almost won it (and technically should have).

Now u want me to refer to a homer article from 1989 where the guy looks like he had a nasty obsession with Lemieux and Bourque . some random site with a moe joe , who basically wrote an essay that no one in 2018 gives 2 rats a×× about. Messier was the Oilers in 89, and his playoff run cemented his hart that year. Bourwue was amazing, Messier was too and was awarded the hart. Just another eastern hack. No one cares.Read up, kiddo: LCS HOCKEY - Hartless: How the 1989 Hart Voting Rewrote History
Bourque was robbed.
