Hutson's best attribute defensively is probably his tenacity.I disagree about the offensive part as even if his plays didn't end in scoring chances, he regularly opened lanes and space.
The defensive part I agree. I've noticed over the years, boards like these aren't detail oriented and miss many bad plays by younger or popular players and underrated what veterans bring. I saw some say that Hutson has a good stick... Disagree. He might one day, but the lack of reach was apparent
A perfect example last night was when he dogged Nylander to point where he could poke the puck out of the zone.
It reminded me of a play in the pre season he got caught out in the Ozone hustled all the way back and plucked the puck from behind like picking grapes.
Both those plays demonstrated above average stick work but the compete level is off the charts.
