Totally agree, enough with the advanced stats in all sports! Too many different categories to enhance an individual’s ability. In other words you either hit or you don’t! You either make a save or you don’t! Just more excuses for players that don’t live up to the hype!!!I sorta wish it never became a thing honestlyMoneyball kinda ruin the game in a lot of ways. On an aesthetic level at least I much prefer baseball the way it used to be before guys figured walks and homeruns was all they really needed.

They are believed to be high throughput pathways as they are elongated and unlike other neurons, only branch out to a single synapse (single dendrite). They are very rare, both in our brains and in the animal kingdom.
We only find them in the anterior cingulate cortex, fronto-insular cortex and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. All three brain regions are intimately close to each other and the VENs are all located in layer V, which is the exterior layer of each cortex. This very peculiar region is known as the salience network. This is the region that lights up when you awaken and become conscious. It lights-up even more when you're at full attention. It is said to be the seat of our consciousness, where all pathways project to and merge to form ourselves, our wsking reality. It's also the same places where our empathy is managed, whether cognitive or affective, but let's not get into that. This bridge of sorts, the salience network, comes between our mid brain and fore brain. In very reductive terms, it's the bridge between (among other things) our social/emotional brain (mid) and our rational brain (fore).
Now, the real proof of the relationship of salience network / VENs / consciousness / sociality-empathy lies in convergent evolution. All primates, pachiderms and cetaceans have them. We've seperately evolved the same cell type (VEN) long after branching out in the evolutionary tree. These also happen to be the mammals that have the highest rate of mirror self-recognition, meaning they are self-aware. They also happen to have some of the most complex social behaviors of all mammals, only surpassed by us. They display intricate communication, episodic memory, complex emotions (elephants cry at the graves of their dearly departed, years after they died) and conflict resolution, among other more human-like behaviors. Among primates, the best problem solvers, bonobos and chimps, also happen to have the most VENs among all primates. Bonobos actually have the closest number and similar organization of VENs as humans do. Bottlenose dolphins are also the best problem solvers and have the highest count of VENs among all cetaceans. They have massive forebrains, another convergent evolution.

Just enough weight to get physically strong so he don't get hurt when one of the big boys bang him into the boards. Hutson won't be a physical shutdown guy regardless of how much muscle he puts on. The goal would be how he survives a 82 game season and playoffs and he would have to get his body in shape for that. Then just let him produce offense

Name of the game is skating and he got it! Skating/Intensity/Skill. This is another Caufield as a smaller type player but on D. The exceptions on your roster where you shoot for size/skating/skill with most of the others.
He's going to have to be sheltered but man... he's fun to watch and going to produce offense and free up space for others.

Agree to best comparison for him it's a Cole Caufield at D-man. So we can all hope a type of player like Quinn Hughes. I'm really high on Lane Hutson. He is a top 10 talent in 2022 draft, we are very lucky to grab him in 62nd overall... I expected that he would be drafted at 20-25 range.

B+ prospect on the cusp of grade A quality. I'm going to let him do his thing at the WJC and NCAA and then see how he looks when he turns pro. Won't get a chance to see him in training camp like we did with Beck for a while yet.
One more NCAA after this year?

No rush for Hutson, another year on NCAA it's perfect to him. He need to grow more, 5"10 will be very good. Quinn Hughes is 5"10.
Can't wait to see him at NHL level.

Height is less of a concern vs weight/strength for me. With guys like this, they need a bit more weight/strength so they can not get injured in the NHL. Playing against the best men in the world is a different game and for as good as his skating is, he will get hit along the boards. Needs to be strong to handle it

Doesn't look all that small, did he grow another inch?!
He grew an inch during warm ups.

Okay so you’re telling me he needs to grow a couple of inches and gain 20-30 lbs to become a small defence man in the NHL, lol.
What a great problem to have, an elite offensive defence man perhaps even a generational talent. What’s not to like? Even the contrarians have to be impressed. Add to that we took a flyer on him in the second round. I’m so excited to watch our D develop over the next couple of years. If Barron, Mailloux & Hutson can hit the ice skating like Guhle, Harris & Xhekaj did this year……our rebuild will be years ahead of schedule.

What's most interesting, our rookie defensemen are leading in points over the veterans.

His skating is bananas
I cannot believe I read on here a few weeks ago that his skating was a weakness lmfao

His skating and the way he moves is very unique.
I’m fascinated everytime i watch him

don't care about his size. there's no way a player of this incredible talent don't get to the NHL and be good

Demidov is a HAB
It's the backward skating and straight line speed.. there's some wasted motion with his arms when he doesn't have the puck.
It's not overly concerning except for the backwards skating.
His edge work and deception though is world class.

If he can handle the physicality of the NHL, those edges and deceptive shakes are going to make him a monster
