He's a good guy! He maybe tried to leave here, because in Winter months, it's -11! Can you imagine?! In my hometown right now, it's PLUS SEVEN!
Hopefully he helps Montreal get more regulation wins than bottom feeders like Buffalo
But that 3 on 3 hockey tho
We'll get those regulations wins sooner than you guys win a round against the oilers.

Assists ARE points. So are goals. AS a defenceman, your more likely to get more assists than goals as your always trying to feed the fwds who usually score the most goals. When a defenceman is as talented as Hutson, they will racking in the assists.
Same man....so same !!!Ah yes, so satisfying to read the op and some of the genius takes on the first few pages. Keep seething and cry more salt pleeeeaaase!!!

He's now tied for the 10th most assists in a season by a rookie player in the history of the league. He just passed Teemu Selanne and tied with Mario Lemieux with 9 games to go, he has a shot to reach Crosby / Trottier / Barzal for top 3 all-time in rookie assists.
2nd in rookie assists for defenseman, just passed Chris Chelios and 3 points back of Larry Murphy for 1st all-time

...no, that's not quite how a debate works...he is entitled to his opinion; I don't agree with his comparison of Hutson to Ghost, but we can still discuss it...

Updated the OP. Will change the title when he'll break either records (assists, ES points).
Look...there are many talented rookies this year. Hutson being one of them. By stating that I think Hutson deserves it this year, Im not trying to take anything away from any other top runner for the Calder. They are all top notch hockey players and deserve to be seen as such but when I objectively look at this season, the stats and the difficulty playing each position in hockey, my vote has to go to Hutson cause thats the hardest position to have success at as a rookie other than goalie.
Sure...you can...Im just saying that one has more points than the other in a very difficult position to excell in on your rookie season plus the dude is very close to being the all time NHL point scoring defenceman of all time for a rookie and I find it ludicrous that so many here are trying to minimize this.
Why do we even try to bring in other players? Hutson is THE de factor Best rookie defenceman in the NHL TODAY based on points!! Case closed!!

I mean Hutson could end up finishing top 2-3 in points all time as a rookie defenceman. Ghost not even top 25
Ghost was top 9 in goals....Hutson will break the record for #1 in assists.
Both of these are huge swings in Hutson's favor. Where are the Ghost comparisons im confused

I like both Hutson and Michkov. Can't believe we could've had both. I hope Reinbacher proves me wrong eventually, but I was pissed we didn't take Michkov and still am to this day.
Hutson is winning it tho. He most likely ends up #1 all-time in assists by a rookie D. What more do you want ?

I honestly dont think Im being arrogant at all. Maybe Im a bit biased? You can accuse me of that....no issues with that. Looking at the stats atm...right in front of me...if Im voting for rookie of the year...I will be extremely hard pressed to vote against Hutson. That's my opinion based on hard evidence. There are different ways of saying it at well and some might think thats a bit too arrogant...;-) but I dont feel that I was...the case closed thingy is a way of saying here are the facts...case closed....I'm not saying don't chirp or anything; Hell, I'd be the last one to say that...we Habs fans might wanna dial it back a bit, though...Confidence is great, Arrogance not soo much...
