Harris might be the only one with a “leg up” as a mid-talented jack of all trades in the very short term imo, if even that. Hutson is at worst Hab new pp qb and the only thing that has him behind those guys (as regulars) and Matheson (on pp1) is old-school veteran respect or the hopes they have trade value soon.Barron has nothing to do with what happens to Lane Hutson.
Will you be saying the same thing if managing Hutson the right way means he starts in Laval with Reinbacher?
Some people are pencilling in Lane Hutson as a top four defender out of the gate.
That means he has to beat out and play better over all defense than all three of Xhekaj Struble and Harris who all have a leg up on him.
He also has to do it in the first season we have indicated we want to start competing in earnest in this rebuild.
If Hutson makes the team I'm fairly certain the plan will be to exploit his strengths without exposing his weaknesses.
I know some here don't think he has any but they are flat out wrong and he also needs seasoning.
Hutson will either be sheltered or he will play in Laval.
We just can't afford to have two plus minus liabilities in our top four.
Also outside Savard every D for the last few years is a complete liability so no different here.
Agreed he could/should be lhd3 and pp1 to start though.
