I will worry about him every time he takes a big hit. Some big, strong boys are playing pro, and most are quicker than the ones in college hockey.

He’s a tough kid. Competitor for sure! Saw that last year when he got into a fight against the Swedes.

He is Dynamic skater going to quarterback a great powerplay. Something we been missing since forever. Reminds me the Hughes kids. Probably be like Quinn, win a Norris someday.

From 32 thoughts.
Friedman - I was talking about Michkov and the calder and I got a text from a Habs player that just said Hutson will make a run for it.
Friedman thinks Hutson will have a harder curve as he will be more of a focus.
He added that the Habs players really think highly of Hutson
You can fast forward to the 9:30ish mark to start to hear Friedman and Bukaskas or whatever talk about him

Demidov is a HAB
I'm not sure how Hutson will be more of a focus than Michkov considering Philly has like one other forward who can score?

The weak answer was his size, which is like .5 inches smaller than Michkov.

I had very good comments about him. Very humble, focus and works very hard

Because there’s some 30K fans in the Philly area (20K of whom who attend home games) - Flyers are a distraction between NFL, NBA and MLB seasons
Media attention is completely opposite of Mtl as well - Michkov will have nowhere near the glare / focus as Hutson on every shift & game etc

I really liked what I saw from Hutson on the weekend. Definitely looks like a high ceiling player and he appears to be NHL ready to me. He has the ability to routinely create something out of nothing with his vision, agility, and stickhandling. His skating and mobility should be fine at the NHL level.
As with all young defencemen, he'll make mistakes this season and may get scratched from time to time though if he's up with the big club.

Who ended up losing a big chunk of his season two years ago.
It's normal to have these worries with the smaller guys.

they collided by accident no? Guys like Caufield and Hutson rarely get smoked for a reason, but it's hockey so no one will make it throughout their career without injuries, big hits, they are going to get hit as will everyone that plays hockey no matter what size you are. But because they have been so small likely their entire careers, unlike say guys like Poehling who would keep skating with their head down, they know to keep their head up.
Did his teammates stand up for him after the hit? Wasn't able to watch the games
Yeah Caufield's injury was on the PP tracking back. His head also got dinged net front a couple of games before that.
Both are super good at remaining elusive but it's always those weird collisions that scare me most.
I still worry about Jake Evans.

Lane and Laine will be huge for us this year. Bringing in the Ls to get the Ws.

I mean we just lost a full season from one of the biggest players on our team.
Everyone can get hurt, but guys who are small have typically learned from a young age to avoid the big hits, whereas guys who never had to worry about it (see: Lindros, Eric) will be more vulnerable at the highest level.

And what?
It still won't prevent me from worrying about a smaller player's ability to endure the wear and tear of this league over time.
The players are getting bigger and faster every year and the collisions are inevitable.
