He has racked up seven goals and 11 assists over 12 contests in January, and he's up to 14 goals, 55 points, 142 shots on net, 73 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating through 53 appearances this season.

At his current pace, he could reach the 80-point threshold by the end of the regular season for the second time in his career. He still has an outside shot to win the Norris Trophy, and he's worth mentioning alongside the best playmaking defensemen in the league.
