I am not the one who saw the previous memes nor am I gullible enough to believe this photo is not altered and defend it with nonsense.

If you think this is a lighting thing and can not see the evidence of a blatant alteration in a world where they are all over the place especially on facebook and instagram and other social media platforms that allow garbage like this on their site.

You just are not getting it, it doesn't matter where the original pic came from, it matters where the pic that is going viral came from and the poster on this board got it from NHL World on fb and even Stu Cowan got it from there as well.

Citing source material that says "GINO HARD" should also be a red flag for you lol.

I have played and been around hockey for longer than most of the posters on this board have been alive and I have never see a player double the size of his quads in such a short time.....I don't think I have ever seen these lower body gains in any hockey player regardless of how long the gap if I am being honest and for an ectomorph like Lane it is next to impossible.
again, its 5 days later.... if it were really altered, it wouldve been out there by now, and we would actually have the original photo as proof.

Your only proof is "I have played and been around hockey for longer than most of the posters on this board have been alive and I have never see a player double the size of his quads in such a short time"

gimme a break

The only reason that the posters who are attacking me don't believe that this one is real is because it does not fit neatly in to their confirmation bias.
other way around,.... YOU ARE the one claiming its fake, and have zero proof. You wanna sound credible and not just another poster talking out of his ass? find us the original photo.... problem is that you wont.

Just another classic Hab hater that cant admit when things are going well for this team.... I assume youve been a Lane Hutson basher from the get go. Its like youre jealous or even worried of the fact the he added muscle and may be bigger and better than you thought, and therefore discredits you.

Boohoo, you were wrong. Must be SO hard to accept with such an inflated ego. Hope you survive.

I do think the 'confirmation bias' argument is funny when it's coming from someone who has spent pretty much every post they've made since he was drafted talking about him being too skinny, too weak and can't skate backward.

Ultimately it's irrelevant because all that matters is what he does on the ice.. Jayden Struble being stronger than Guhle has never once made him a better player or prospect.

The claim was not the pic being Hutson’s legs but a question of whether Hutson has been influenced by MSL to follow his training regimen, and potential of what future may hold..

No, the pic was absolutely suggesting that his legs have made huge gains

You also have a confirmation bias in the other direction.

This is what flat earthers say to science based people when their confirmation bias is exposed. I am correct, just like I was with the goalie debate that you refuse to concede and like I was correct with Lane's backskating issues and the fact the his measurements were intentionally exaggerated at BU.

I keep getting attacked by the same posters who place their bias above evidence.

We both think Hutson is a great prospect and are excited for the season to start, no need to double down on the biased narrative, we are on the same side here buddy.

I absolutely hate conspiracy theories so when I make an assertion it is because it is where the evidence clearly is pointing.

What are you talking about?

You're not correct - you've provided 0 evidence that the photo is altered, you haven't provided an original photo that shows what it was before the alteration, and you haven't even come up with a rational conclusion for why it would have been altered in the first place other than "it's the internet".

Bringing in Flat Earth arguments when you are the one with the conspiracy theory of an altered photo is a bit of a lack of self-awareness on your part. You are the one who is trying to disprove the legitimacy of something that has been posted without any real substance as to why it would be altered.

And your evidence for saying it has been altered is a bunch of photos from ~5 months ago, further away from Lane and where you can't actually see his upper legs.

The only thing at play here is that a sitting photo of Lane is being compared to a standing photo of MSL, where obviously if you had your legs sat on a flat surface it will push things laterally and make things appear bigger than they would if you were standing straight up.

The photo wasn't altered, the comparison is a flawed one - that's it. No one altered the photo and suggesting that Lane did no work in the off-season to make his legs bigger than they were 5 months ago would be the harder thing to prove.

His legs aren't as big as MSL's - but they didn't photoshop the photo. You just want to keep his notion of Lane being too skinny legged and skinny-butted in conversation and alive because that is your bias and what you have specifically spent pretty much 2 years arguing.

And when called on anything you just default to being older and more experienced in this or that than anyone.

LOL..... you cant come up with this stuff

Understand YOURE the "flat earther" here.... A photo is posted, and you and ONLY you claim its fake. And whats your proof? this.... ie. your ego
I have played and been around hockey for longer than most of the posters on this board have been alive and I have never see a player double the size of his quads in such a short time....

Its even more ridiculous than what flat earther's provide as their "proof".

I mean, ask yourself WHY would some amateur hockey page called Gino Hard decide to photoshop such a random photo? Out of ANY photo they could choose to alter... hey lets fool everyone and make LANE HUTSON'S thighs look bigger than they really are. Yeah, thatll generate so much money due to a few extra likes and comments.

Doesnt that sound completely stupid?

You're arguing with what I would consider to be the first truly carbon neutral human I've encountered. A man who can completely subsist off of consuming his own farts.

I'm not quite clear on why anyone cares wether it's been altered or not... The cup isn't awarded for a body building contest last I checked.

So according to your egregiously flawed retort I would also be a conspiracy theorist for claiming that the Ovechkin picture is altered. Would I be a conspiracy theorist for calling fortune tellers frauds of Flat Earthers charlatans? The "I know you are but what am I" strategy will not fly here my friend.

You have displayed a long history on this board of conspiracy level narratives devoid of evidence and brimming with confirmation bias with coaches in the Habs system. You transitioned immediately from the Houle hating narrative directly into Pascal Vincent hate by forwarding yet another misinterpretation/misunderstanding of the expectations of the Laval Rockets coach. You are not even waiting for the evidence, just a blind declaration of his incompetence that somehow great hockey men like Hughes and Gorton were not able to detect. This is what confirmation bias looks like. If a picture that was not obviously tampered with showed up with Lane having made enormous gains I would not hesitate to entirely change my opinion on his ability to gain significant muscle mass. This is what objective opinion looks like. I have been wrong many times on this board and have publicly owned my mistakes every time, which is exactly what conspiracy theorists do not do.

I compiled a mountain of empirical evidence that you simply ignored with regards to the importance of not selecting goalies early in the draft as you prioritized your bias yet again over evidence.

Stu Cowan mentioned how incredibly skinny Lane's legs were when he met him and there are enough pictures to support that. I am not arguing that he has not made gains but this picture is unarguably doctored and denying that is simply giving in to your extreme bias. You can't call my position biased when I have been consistently correct and I have also been consistent in my praise and excitement about Hutson's game. Attack my claims individually and be proven wrong but do me a favour and save the broad strokes for someone else. Claiming that because I have multiple concerns with Hutson is evidence that I have a narrative that is driven by a bias towards him failing is just wrong as you and others continuously and predictably never quote my positive takes on him which greatly out number the negative one's. Your inability to accept a balanced narrative is evidence of having a bias driven narrative. How many prospects do you make absolute declarations about that are hyperbolic and unsupported? I can tell you it is a lot.

Lane Hutson is a great prospect who has flaws and gifts that make him unique.....that is the truth and you only accepting one side of that statement is what drives your biased narrative. Stating 1 + 1 + 2 is not confirmation bias it is fact, the difference here seems to be lost on too many people nowadays. By you asserting that my observation of Hutson having skinny legs is confirmation bias on my part is objectively incorrect as I, as much as anyone would love to see him show up with MSL legs. You do understand what confirmation bias means?? The fact that you have an entirely different standard for evidence of legitimacy between the Hutson pic and the Ovechkin pic should be a red flag for you to perhaps vet your own opinion before attacking others.

Like I said, we are both cheering for the same team and the same player in this case. My observation needn't trigger the reaction that you have displayed as it is unwarranted and unsupported.

Can tell we are in the dog days of summer. People arguing over whether a man's legs are photoshopped or not

The only problem is the arguing as not everyone is interested in what is more likely to be true.

Honestly not that stupid at all lol MTL fans are wild, look at what it's doing on just this site alone. This is marketing genius if shopped to stir up the Habs fans.

Now idk if this photo is shopped, but it absolutely would not surprise me if so. Everything is altered these days. Somebody needs to sneak some photos under the stall next time he's taking a dump 💩

Or… it’s just the lighting and the angle.

I don’t know why people would jump to “shopped!” You can’t tell much about the size of his legs from that photo.

I also think it’s funny that you point to others as conspiracy theorists when it is you who are in fact suggesting a conspiracy.

What's funny is that nobody seems to have even uploaded the source image. This was supposedly ripped off of instagram by someone on reddit, then cropped by a bunch of other groups.

I don't use instagram so that would be for someone else to verify.

The instagram post was posted by Shutdown a couple pages back.

I don't see why Lane Hutson can't produce like Quinn Hughes. The only truly difference is at skating, but seriously... Hutson is a very very good skater aswell.

Hutson 2 games against DET, show better defensive play than Hughes (at his debut), now Hughes is better all around D-man. Hutson have same size than Hughes. Outproduced him at NCAA in same age.

Hutson is very much going to be an "X factor" for us this season.

If everything else goes right(top 6 stays relatively healthy, young guys take a step forward, goaltending doesn't fall apart) then I could see Hutson being enough of a "push" to get us into the wildcard discussion for at least part of this season.
