Lane Hutson Burgeoning Star Watch

[Frank Drebin]

Wonder what he's having for dinner today.

Something very salty

 

[dukeofjive]

Not sure what’s more fun, seeing the kid fly on the ice of fans of others teams salt farming.

whys this thread even still going on the main boards rather than on the montreal forum lol

its 2000 posts of someone lightly criticizing hutsons defensive abilities and all montreal fans losing their minds at that comment, then repeat. never seen such an insecure group

 

[SteveCangialosi123]

Still avoiding the question i see

Maybe stop posting advanced stats without context to promote an agenda if you’re not ready to get called out on them

“Bleeding chances “ is highly dependent on what kind of team you play for, usage, teammates etc.

Posting xga/60 without context is dishonest, but you already knew that

You’ve said literally absolutely nothing at all. He’s bad defensively. Ass. Clear from the eye test and statistics. Sorry that offends you, but most rookies are bad defensively. Especially midgets that are on the worst defensive team in the league playing lots of minutes.

Luke Hughes was pretty bad defensively as a rookie and is now outstanding. You can crown Lane if that happens.

Check the first page of this thread. The thread was not created by a habs fan. Then check the next few posts after that for the smarky comments.

The tone was not set for a genuine conversation right from the get go.

It doesn’t offend me
You tried passing off xga/60 as some sort of proof that quinn hughes was better defensively as a rookie than hutson

Remember when you posted that?

 

[Grate n Colorful Oz]

lightly criticizing hutsons defensive abilities and all montreal fans losing their minds at that comment,

You can gaslight all you want, but just a few posts before yours there's a poster saying:

Hutson is shit defensively

You're only showing your own bias and insecurity, by trying to spin reality.

Something very salty

Whatever it is, it's probably all paid up with all that free rent he's getting.

Yes, I remember that point that clearly demonstrated that Quinn Hughes was better than Hutson defensively as a rookie.

Anyway, bad defensive player:

this is you conceding that xga/60 was a bad comparison and should not have been used

Merry Christmas

This is you clinging to some stupid irrelevant nonsense after you’ve been BTFO. And this is me exiting this dumb thread.

You will be missed

I thought all the haters were imagining the Quinn Hughes comparisons. Only took a couple points to change the confidence of some posters

Can't wait for my Cole Hutson Burgeoning Star Watch thread after he outscores Buium at the WJCs.

Will visit to sprinkle salt sparingly

You’re just as bad as the crosby fans that use the same boneheaded intangibles argument that was used against them with toews that they now use to suggest that crosby is better than mcdavid.

Years of hearing idiots say “karlsson should be a forward “ has rotted your brain to the point that you think it’s a valid suggestion for lane hutson.

Go demonstrate hockey knowledge elsewhere

Nah.

Karlsson never was anywhere near as bad defensively as Hutson is.

We shall see if Hutson improves defensively, it won't be hard.

 

[Jason MacIsaac]

Hutson is way better defensively than Hughes when he was a rookie.

Hughes was awful back then.

Hughes is 6’2, long reach for height, one of top 3 skating Dmen in the NHL. Do you really think he is the right guy to compare to? Find someone Hutson’s height, weight and skating that has been this bad defensively then see what they improved to.

I mean, most of them live in the "world class dump"that is Montréal

Of course they are insecure

Why would you insult someones city? Just keep it to hockey. You going to insult their home and occupation too?

Anyway it was a long time ago but i remember erik karlsson having a meme worthy rookie season going -31 or something

As you suggested there is room to improve, and Hutson certainly will. Especially when they find him the right partner. Matheson/savard aint it

 

[Jason MacIsaac]

That might be debatable, but Hughes subsequent rise to the top of of the league for defensive reliability is an extremely rare circumstance for a player his size. Like, it's almost never happened.

His elite skating is probably the reason.

More than one hughes defenseman in the nhl

Unless quinn is 6’2 which i don’t think he is

 

[Plastic Joseph]

Happy birthday to Lane Hutson!

Yea, figured that out a few posts later haha

As someone mentioned above, pairing Hutson with a defensive stud that excels denying zone entries, wins battles down low and can make breakout passes will maximize his value on Montreal.

 

[Breakers]

LOLOLOLOL “way better”
