Lane Hutson NHL Rankings Today

[KrisLetAngry]

Where does Lane Hutson rank in defenseman rankings today.

His potential is sky high but I want to know about these first 2 months.

Edit: After poll results I have added more options. 36 and higher may be considered as 36 to 39 but most likely just higher. Could not change wording or remove. So if you have voted and want to recast your vote that would be cool.

right now I think he'd be the 1D on a few teams.... 2D on many.

Ill say 30-35

 

[Pavels Dog]

60-70 range

 

[DJJones]

Thats a very aggressive selection of choices haha

 

[FriendlyGhost92]

A defenseman that can't defense?

A dozen or two spots below Shayne Gostisbehere.

I know someone that has him ranked very highly. So I thought I'd give him his rankings.

Wish I continued with the ranks going higher. Seems people really have him ranked much lower.

Always going to be a few people that rank their prospects high. 85-90% of people selecting the bottom option is going to result in a rather meaningless poll though

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

wtf where is the top 5 option?

 

[NyQuil]

Is this for the Super NHL or just the regular one?

I have added more options but couldn't change 36 and higher. But I think those votes prove my point and not his.

There are guys who have won the Norris while being average defenders at best....

Much like Erik Karlsson, right?

 

[Bouboumaster]

#1

 

[hamzarocks]

Hes a #3D at the moment which as a rookie is elite

 

[Yepthatsme]

Much like Erik Karlsson, right?

If peak Erik Karlsson played his style while only putting up 55 points (Hutson’s pace), people would’ve viewed him VERY differently.

Hutson has oodles of potential though.

Karlsson did play his style (zero defence) and put up 26 points as a rookie

More like the guy I already mentioned lol.

But sure, Hutson is the next EK65...

I know which is why he has great potential. That’s just what the poll is about, it’s not terribly valuable if I was picking a list of defenseman for their current talents right now.

A more interesting comp for a poll like this would be how do people view Erik Karlsson TODAY.

Are we just making shit up in here?

Karlsson wasn't a particularly high event player in his rookie season. His xGA and xGF didn't stick out from his teammates.

When he became a high event player, in his third season, he also became the 10th highest scoring player in the league.

Literally nothing about that is made up but ok

Why are you comparing rookie Hutson to 3rd year Karlsson? This post makes zero sense

 

[John Mandalorian]

It’s too soon for this.

If Karlsson was a zero defense player in his rookie season, why is that not at all reflected in either his shots against, scoring chances against, goals against, or expected goals against?

Because you were comparing Hutson to a Karlsson who sacrificed defense for offense? Wasn't that abundantly clear by my stating outright that Karlsson's becoming a high event player coincided with his putting up a shit ton of points?

Hutson pacing to double his production, read it and weep

Edit: even going to out produce Karlsson’s 2nd year where he didn’t “sacrifice defence” and went -30 lmfao

Are you confused? Do you not understand what I'm saying about how his shots against, scoring chances against, etc. don't reflect that he sacrificed defense for offense?

Why would I read anything and weep? Do you think I'm a Senators fan?

Do you not understand what I mean about high event hockey? Is that the issue?
