    In order to get this achievement, I recommend you play as an offensive defensemen, as it will make it easier to make your trophy track the Norris. Essentially, the Norris is awarded to the best all-around defensemen, so be able to score a lot of goals. What I did was I would start a game, with sliders adjusted, score a goal, back out. Repeat this for every game and you should have the most points among defensemen. I recommend you play on a team with a good offense too ensure a high +/- ( I used the Red Wings, not the best offense but competent enough to aid the effort). The achievement will pop at the end of the season, and the gm will congratulate you on your trophy win.

    The james Norris Trophy is for top defencemen. What you need to do is create a New be a pro and select defense as your position. Now you go through the grind of playing through your first season. ( Id skip the AHL portion) and get drafted to an NHL team right away.

    PLAY YOUR POSITION! Block shots, poke check for sure, but when you have the puck dont be afraid to go on the offesive, "Bobby orr it up" a few times a game. Get a good lead, then SIM the remainder of the game.
    (psssst, you dont have to win every game, just make the playoffs)

    What I do is play a game, rack up the points in the first 4-5 minutes (sliders ajusted ofcourse) then SIM the rest of the game, then SIM 2, 3, 4 games in a row (to help eat up the season). Then play another 4-5 minutes, get points. Rinse repeat.

    The James Norris Trophy, again, is for top defensemen, people will argue that you need to block 100s of shots and blah blah blah, its all about the points! (a la Erik Karlson, Nick Lidstrom Etc Etc) If you want the Selke trophy block shot and have a high +/- .
    This one, get over 100+ points, no other D man will come close

    If you negative vote, fine. But this is how its done

    Storminator16To quote you, VenomSlash8771:

    "This one, get over 100+ points, no other D man will come close"

    That's all you really have to do in this game. Just outscore every other defensemen. No way your +/- will struggle. You'll probably easily lead the league in hitting as well.

    Storminator16And I didn't bother trying to block a single shot.

    Storminator16And I picked the "defensive defenseman" mold. I just played a rover and fought a lot. :D
