Lane Hutson Burgeoning Star Watch

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Why are they playing him so many mins? They got to know he’s never going to be a #1…. Should be prepping him for a ppqb #3

 

[mrmovies779]

Super talented kid,but he has a lot to work on.More AHL time wouldn't be the worst thing for him

 

[pahlsson]

looks like quinn hughes

 

[Lampedampe]

The Calder was his to lose... After 3 games. Looks like it only took 3 games to lose it.

Being completely mismanaged. Let the fans have the illusion of an immediate savior. As a coach you don’t actually put him in that position

 

[waffledave]

I feel for the kid who never asked for hab fans to have the nerve to compare him to Quinn a top 3 dman in the league but I mean this was the most obvious outcome, he's far to flawed to justify having him out there in any defensive situation.
The amount of sheltering needed just to play him doesn't seem feasible.

I get he's young but he's clearly in way over his head and needs to be sent down to learn how to play defense, otherwise they will destroy the poor kids confidence.

Quinn Hughes was like -40 over his first 100 nhl games.

 

[Frank Drebin]

Pretty unfair situation to be thrown into.

Yeah, all jokes aside Hutson has looked impressive. But playing him 24 min a game is just terrible coaching, perhaps Martin had a bias for playing short players

I don't think you've been watching anything besides the +/- stats

I've watched almost every shift and all he does is skate around the offensive zone eventually going into the corners with nine times out of ten the puck being turned over.

Who cares how often he has the puck when despite the zone time, the team is absolutely getting crushed in the end.

Watch Quinn Hughes play even in his worst season in the North div, Quinn has never floundered the way this kid does.

You guys refuse to see what's so painfully obvious and that is he's not only not gonna learn in this scenario but he's been regressing as teams shake the rust out and study video of him.

There's no shame in admitting he's overmatched and needs to be sent down to work on his game.

Are you suggesting the nhl is a developmental league? Should the Habs just give up on winning?

they habs appear to have already given up on winning

Sadly that certainly appears to be true. Not too sure if St. Louis gets too many more games as the coach.

Random Pens fan obsessed with Lane Hutson of all people. He posts about him more than he does his own team.

Can’t disagree. Huston isn’t ready for the nhl and certainly needs to
Learn how to pkay the right way in the minors. But even so he’s got superstar written all over him. I’m hoping the Habs send him down for a half season. Because if they do, when he comes up, watch out for a complete player. And that’s scary with his skills.

 

[DelZottoHitTheNetJK]

Solid puck rush skills on display tonight







...for the other team

Is Lane Huston’s picture correct on HockeyDB?

This looks like a 6’6” Russian bottom 6er not a 5’9” OFD.

Am I crazy?

I know it’s him but not what I expected him to look like (when I looked up his stats) as the picture in my head is this:
