Player Discussion Lane Hutson Part 2

[Habs10Habs]

Let’s agree to disagree, I think Lane having to cover for a slow footed, aging dman only makes his transition to the NHL more challenging, not less.

Savard has lost a step or two. But he's not the type of defenseman that will allow himself to be out of position. He will stay back and allow Hutson to do his thing.

Hutson probably has more offensive talent in his pinky finger, than Savard has ever had in his entire body. In saying that, he brings a lot of experience both on and off the ice. Personally, until Savard's traded. I'd love to see Hutson with Savard, if Hutson makes the opening night roster.

Out of curiosity, who would be your first choice to play with Hutson?

 

[MTL Dirty Birdy]

He showed pretty clearly that at best he was going to be a 3C and he ended up being a rotational 4th liner. Pretty median outcome for a guy like that. The one game gave people hope there was top 6 offense in there but there never really was, none of his offensive tools were all that good.

I remember when he was drafted he was sen as a safe/high floor player for the third line and low ceiling that 2nd line absolute best. If I recall ceiling was mikko Koivu lite

 

[MTL Dirty Birdy]

We should hopefully not find ourselves in that position again this year.. pick late top ten or just outside of it, we can still get a good piece like Spence to add to our team but take that step forward.

I’ve been saying the same. He’s the profile our roster is missing

 

[Ozmodiar]

which robbed him of his quickness, end to end speed and offensive effectiveness. His legacy would have been much more impactful but for that decision. Probably would still be playing today.

His skating was all dig and no glide.

A 25 years old Reinbacher probably.

A 25 years old Reinbacher probably.

Agreed, I can definitely see Reinbacher and Hutson being a long term pairing.

 

[Rapala]

I think he starts in Montreal under the close eye of management similar to how they developed Slafkovsky.

I still think it could go either way.
My main concern is I just don't see both Matheson and Hutson as being our top 4 LD I think it would be a disaster.
I also don't see us annointing Hutson as a our go to offensive catalyst out of the gate.
So are we better off playing Hutson sheltered 3rd pairing minutes and PP2 time in the NHL or top line minutes and PP1 in Laval?

Matheson is the odd man out if Hutson becomes what everyone thinks he can be.
The problem is I don't think we are ready to move him just yet.
I guess what I'm feeling is I don't see the vaunted "balance" Hughes talks of with both Hutson and Matheson in the line up.
I'd also like to see just how well Hutson can QB a PP with top line players in the pro leagues.

Start the camp already...

I do think they respect Matheson's defensive ability more and there's a possibility that he might become a safer defenseman when he isn't the only one charged with creating offense from the back-end.

keep the puck in the offensive zone. That’s the best defense. I would have no problem with a dcorp of Hutson/Reinbacher, Guhle/Mailloux and matheson/jackeye/harris/barron in whatever combos make the most sense. It’s not a traditional defense to be sure, but I think it has potential to be completely overwhelming for opposing teams to have these young, offensive minded d’s pushing the puck up Ice all night long. I actually think it’s a winning combination. They just need a bit more experience.

During the season sure it will be fun to watch, but you won’t win during the playoffs with that

Pens won a cup with Letang/Gonchar

I was thinking something similar but I'm wondering if Matheson can pull it off.

 

[Demigod Gloves]

I think Hutson has a legit chance at the Calder now, just has to set up Patty on the pp and let him rip it

 

[26Mats]

This is my thinking as well.

I can't wait to see Hutson and Matheson as a 1 - 2 punch, coming in waves. And in late games where we need a goal, they should be good together.

There ya go - the photo was never photoshopped, you can see with not sitting flat on a chair and not in that type of lighting, his muscles were accentuated but not photoshopped. You can see exactly how the lighting and sitting would have made his quads look bigger than they are, but still a decent size.

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.


also i experience concussions on a daily basis.
