Prospect Info: Lane Hutson Part 2

[red devil]

 

[Riggins]

It looks like this guy has no bones when he gets hit. He just absorbs whatever comes at him like a gelatinous mass of goo.

It's part of the delayed bone growth, it's still just goo.

 

[Goalfield22]

It's part of the delayed bone growth, it's still just goo.

I wonder how soft his scalp is.

On the broadcast they showed exactly what makes Hutson so dangerous in the offensive zone.

At one he had the puck at the point and pinched down, and literally all 5 Canucks players were all fixated on him (not to mention the goalie). This might have been on the goal he scored now that I think of it, but regardless, it happens all the time, he forces more than 1 defender to engage with him and it creates so much space for everyone else.

They’re not all used to it because sometimes even the Habs players get caught staring, but once they figure that out…

This is the best game Hutson play this season. He was incredible tonight. Best player on the ice.

LANE HUTSON: 30 PTS (LEADS FOR THE NHL ROOKIE PTS)

Incredibly, he's also tied for 6th in the "League" for pts by a defenseman!

 

[koivu2k1]

What a beauty !

Thank you Brett Kulak, legend, you will always be remembered.

 

[Goalfield22]

Look at the names around him... It's unreal.

 

[Zorro]

First 10 games: 5 pts
Next 10 games: 6 pts
Next 10 games: 9 pts
Last 10 games: 10pts

If he keeps it up, 70pts is not impossible

He is playing on the first power play unit since December...

He would have at least 5 more points by now

 

[CharleyHorse]

Sure, but when Caufield gets hit, he doesn't come out of it with a goofy smile as if nothing happened like Hutson lol.

At this point, I am for whatever works.

 

[Matthew McConaughay]

This kid will cost a lot.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

This kid will cost a lot.

You think he’s expensive now?

Just wait until he stops growing.

 

[JustAHabFan]

This kid will cost a lot.

I would prefer we paid for talent. Whatever we paid for Hutson will be worth it.

 

[Guy Larose]

Trade him, his value is at its highest and we can get a first!

 

[Ozmodiar]

good patience waiting for passing lanes to open up. (There were a few examples tonight, like the pass to Gallagher, and his assists. )
He seems to be keeping to the left side of the o-zone a bit more lately, which helps with that. (On his forehand)

 

[Jurivan Demidovsky]

Trade him, his value is at its highest and we can get a first!

Probably a 1st and a 3rd, quick!

 

[Bombshell11]

This kid will cost a lot.

You mean more than a 1st OA ?

Probably a 1st and a 3rd, quick!

If Chicago calls to offer Bedard for Hutson, personally i wont do it.

 

[DemidovSZN]

But was his quads photoshopped though?

Oh man that OT goal the way he drew that defender over to him then fed it to Suzuki.

I can’t believe we’re adding Demidov to this team next year.

 

[Nedved]

Reminding me of the general on the pp. incredible vision. He is starting to look like a number 1 dman. Filled up quick but if our d stays healthy we probably get a wc spot.

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Hutson - Demidov combo will be nutty

 

[KevSkillz4]

Hutson - Demidov combo will be nutty

That's amazing man. Two superstar talent right there!!

 

[Nicko999]

He's got to be the highest IQ player I've seen on this team in my 20 years pf watching.

Absolutely incredible, only 40 games in, he's our best defenseman and he just keeps getting better every game.

I wouldn't put him above Markov for now still. I see their IQs as similar.

Unlike Markov however, Hutson is more skilled.

Markov had a better shot by a mile though, both wristers and slapshots.
Markov was also a rock on defense.
