Lane Hutson Burgeoning Star Watch

[Jason MacIsaac]

Luke Hughes is an insane skater, but he doesn't have the IQ Quinn or Lane has. Insane tools. Not sur if the tool box will be good enough for him to reach is potential.

Hard to have the IQ of those two, they are both elite with the puck. Luke doesn’t need to though, he is already playing at #1 defensmen level the last month. If the IQ comes then we are talking perennial Norris candidate.

The Hutson-Matheson pair is indeed absolutely wild but in all honesty there aren't any players on our roster who can take that #1RD spot. They tried Hutson with Savard, which is much more logical on paper, but Savard just isn't what he used to be anymore.

Guhle matches with Carrier. Xhekaj matches with Savard and later will match with Mailloux as we saw in the AHL. However Matheson and Hutson indeed aren't too great together which I believe is what's fueling Matheson trade rumours. I mean he was already prone to brain farts but now that he's playing on his offside? yeesh. I would've liked to have seen what Hutson and Kovacevic could've accomplished together but it is what it is.

Best defensive prospect since Makar?

Looks to be a generational talent.

Did you just reply to yourself?

AND his growth plates still haven't fused. Sky is the limit, baby.

Forget about being a full 5'10", let's head on straight to 6'6".

And he's on the dog shit Habs

Yeah we still kinda suck.

You mean Carrier, not Belzile?

Speaking of brain farts... Corrected it.

Didn't watch him this season , but previously , I would say premium tools with average tool box. A better version of Mike Matheson (low IQ/toolbox) with potential to be elite.

Yes Hutson and Quinn IQs are elite. So it's not a knock, but just saying they are not good comparables.

Luke thinks the game extraordinarily well. His defensive IQ is miles ahead of his brother at the same age.

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Kid is insane, genuinely feel bad for people who can’t enjoy his play

 

[Holtbyisms]

Will visit to sprinkle salt sparingly

Only one game but can I start yet or too soon?

 

[Jack Spider]

I think it’d be a more logical move to have him dominate the AHL and focusing on improving his defensive game and removing the warts. Some of the plays he made last night would get most prospects sent down.

He already dominates the play at the NHL. Hutson mentally recovers well from mistakes. He understands that it’s normal and part of the game. You can’t skateboard and be scared of falling. He doesn’t need any sheltering.

 

[My3Sons]

If a guy says Hughes is 6’2 it is pretty damn easy to guess which brother he is talking about

Well it could be either Zeppo or Gummo Hughes.

We could all tell
