Top 4 in Vancouver. 3rd pairing dmen on top 16 teams. He will improve a bit though.

Believe it or not, even my homer butt agrees with you here. He's being groomed for a permanent top four role with us because he matches Gudbranson very well. He has the potential to be top 4, and will probably max out as a 30-40 point 3 zone top four defender.

Hard to say what his ceiling is, but I agree he's tracking to be a 30-40 point defender who is solid in all zones. That's probably a 2/3 max upside, which is a home run for a 5th rounder.

He's not worth trading though, given he brings everything that the Canucks need (size, speed, skill, youth).

Hutton is a part of the rebuild (if there ever is one) so no to moving him. I think he'll be better than Tanev eventually. #2 40 pt dman with some physical aspect to his game. A poor man's Duncan Keith.
