The odd man rushes were brutal tonight thanks to way too much freelancing by #48 and shitty coverage by our forwards. Monty was hung out to dry.

#48 is bringing a culture of debauchery to our beautiful team
He will learn. You gotta live with the rookies

Absolutely. There was also terrible attention to detail by forwards who weren't covering for #48 on his pinches. Tonight's lack of team defense looked like a bad beer league team full of selfish players.
We'll never be in position for meaningful games in March if this doesn't get cleaned up.
With experience he will learn when to pick and choose his moments more wisely and his teammates will learn to react when he activates.
Hope the -4 doesn't make him bashful though, what makes him special is his daring nature, you can't snuff that.

Agreed.
When Kent takes him to Arbitration in 2 years he has to make sure to bring tapes of this game to save an extra 500,00$/yr of his contract.

As crazy as it sounds, i'd have to agree. He's just that good.
To his credit, at his peak PK was also shutting down superstars and bringing a physical element at the other end.

I know we're all excited to have a guy as skilled as Hutson on the team, but the cheering just when he touches the puck is a bit much imo. 
The Bell center fans need to chill about that one. We don't want Hutson to think he has to do something spectacular every time he touches the puck just to impress the fans. His game is flashy enough as is, I just want him to play his game and no worry about what WE think.

Subban was a physical beast, quick for his weight, and defensively sound. Don't let the post-trade propaganda campaign deceive you. The whole NHL was tilted against him and he still earned his reputation as a TopX dman for a god-damned reason.

Didn't expect him to log that kind of minutes so early, especially without PP1.
He certainly has MSL trust.

I'm cheering from my couch at home every time he has the puck. What do you expect , we have had a bottom 3 league wide entertainment product for like 15 years. Literally only Arizona and maybe Minnesota have iced more boring rosters with less skill than us during that span. Look it up. Its not pretty.I know we're all excited to have a guy as skilled as Hutson on the team, but the cheering just when he touches the puck is a bit much imo.

It's the big build up, before the inevitable teardown lolI know we're all excited to have a guy as skilled as Hutson on the team, but the cheering just when he touches the puck is a bit much imo.

I guess, but the way I see it, when the fan cheer just because he has the puck on his stick, it means they're anticipating something spectacular. I just don't want it to affect his decision making. I know his IQ is very high, but he's still a 20 yo rookie, having 21 000 cheering just because the puck is on your stick might put unnecessary pressure on a young guy. That's just my opinion though
Yea I definitely get that, I am too in a way. I'm just pointing out the possible effect it could have on a rookie playing an already high-risk game
*edit: Just saw the Letang comments and he pretty much said the same thing about the crowd and Hutson having to be careful not to do too much just because of them

I doubt it will affect Hutson. Making the jump from the NCAA to the nhl didn't scare him or affect him at all, so I don't see why fans cheering when he has the puck would affect him.

His confidence in his abilities is what made his transition seamless imo. Look, I'm not saying the crowd 100% will affect him negatively, but just looking at it from a psychological standpoint, is there a possibility that having 21k people cheering just because the puck is on the stick of a 20 y.o might have an effect his decision making? I'd say there's a possibility, that's all

This is a kid who said he doesn't really listen to music he doesn't seem to be wired the same way most people are, so I wouldn't really worry about it.

Hutson's game is all about smarts and he's only going to get smarter with experience. I'd be unsurprised if he's already a noticeably better player at both ends by the end of the regular season. He just sees the ice so well, its incredible.
