How long have they been doing this? I don’t go anywhere on NHL.com except the stats pages

I think the simulation stuff is new from this season, I haven't seen it last year. It's on the gamecenter page for the game.

The you have Barron von Dipshit

I love him like he's my own son.

Maitz · 2024-10-11T11:02:52-0400

I am really surprised on how he progress, I thought it would be really difficult to adapt but he already is making safe play and is way better than I thought in his zone, the only concern for me is his coverage in front of the net, when the other player is bigger (which is 97% of the time) he has problem with pushing the body and blocking the stick of his oppononent has they use their size to their advantage, other than that I think he has a 60-70 pts upside and maybe more

I have realized that Barron hasn't improved in over 2 years...now I know why Mailloux is pissed at being sent down.

- Smart play by Gallagher to give Hutson the puck back and head straight to the net.

- Been a fan of Hutson's since we drafted him, but have to admit, my fandom is growing each and every game. He can create scoring chances out of nothing multiple times a game. I was in the gruop that thought his ceiling this year was gonna be in the 30-40 points range, but (I know it's early) that might of been undervaluing him.

JoelWarlord · 2024-10-11T11:28:44-0400

Hutson Suzuki Demidov on the same PP1 is gonna lead to some incredibly big brain plays

montreal · 2024-10-11T11:28:58-0400

He showed at the rookie tournament that he can be the best player on the ice,

That Habs Fan · 2024-10-11T11:31:08-0400

I've seen enough to want Matheson off PP1 and replaced with Lane.

Caufield-Suzuki-Dach
Laine-Hutson

That is going to be such a sick powerplay unit once Laine is back. And to think, next season Demidov gets added.

When players show you they are special at every level, believe them.

These stats are no coincidence, these stats have been that way his entire career, at every level. Those are against Boston and Toronto, not Chicago and Anaheim eh.

Those of you that think he can't play defense will watch in not so many games when he is playing no.1 minutes.

Play the kid on every PP you can have !!!

Kosseca · 2024-10-11T12:42:28-0400

When your team is in a rebuild, you need to have things to look forward to other then the wins. Hutson is delivering that for me right now. I want to see him on the ice, I get excited when he has the puck... always wondering what's he'll pull of. People keep saying that he wont be able to keep his style in the NHL and he's proving them wrong.

Play the kid, let him get comfortable in all situation. He'll make mistake... I dont care. make me dream kid!

It's a different way of looking at defensive play isn't it?

it's why I said I would have put him on PP1 from the start because he is the future, unless we get someone else that can be a #1 PP QB, as the Habs PP has been a nightmare for years and this is a league where it's very hard to be good if your PP sucks ass. If you had a Carey Price in net maybe but this organization at least for now badly needs a #1 PP QB and Hutson is the answer no question.

If people watched my Lane Hutson vids they saw what he can do, just a question of how effective can he be at such a light weight over a long season and in one day hopefully some long playoff runs. But you could always see that where ever he went he was able to put on a show. I've got almost 100 Hutson vids on my channel, if you haven't seen them by now I would suggest watching him closely.

It's only a matter of time before he's the number one guy. I don't think many people would disagree that he's probably already the best fit there.

However, the Canadiens have to be careful here. Matheson's value is pretty high due to his PP numbers and I don't see him as a long term solution here. So that means trading him sooner rather than later. And for the duration that he's here, it kinda makes sense to keep giving him those PP minutes so he doesn't lose his value.

I don't think his value is that high, but that depends on what anyone thinks high means. I have never cared for Matheson so I don't see the need to be careful here as I think GMs know what kind of player he is. I don't think he's the key to any big trade outside of a package.

It should definitley be a package. We have tons to trade with. And we need veteran help on the right side D. That makes the most sense. It lets Ghule move back to the left and takes the pressure off the younger blueliners. It's one thing to have a bunch of young forwards... a whole different thing to have young blueiners.

A bad reputation is very hard to overcome and Matheson reputation was not good he was pretty much given away for free twice. The first time he was traded for an almost retired Hornqvist who was on a bad contract. Hornqvist was almost a cap dump at this point. This trade was seen pretty much as bad contract for bad contract. Then Pens shipped Matheson to us for basically nothing. He'll have a good value at the TDL of the last year of his contract if he keeps playing well but ATM i don't think his value is as high as people think it id.

BehindTheTimes · 2024-10-11T13:53:59-0400

I know it’s early, but I think he sets the record for points by Habs first year dman. If he doesn’t get injured I’m saying 60-70 points.

Yeah that's why I never really got into the whole "sell high" on Matheson stuff. I think he's a pretty OK 2nd pair D who's uniquely well suited for the specific role of "#1 on a bad team to keep the puck moving so your forwards get touches" but I don't think anyone around the league would have been fooled by the 62 point season last year and I doubt his value has changed much or will be much different as a pending UFA either.

I just don't really think he ever really had or would have had that much trade value, a contender would be looking at him as a 2LD puck mover and a bad team would be trying to add him as a token vet to fill the #1/leader role and keep the game flow respectable for their forwards as a puck mover. Neither of those roles are really the kind of roster chair GMs are going to pay a ton to fill.

Muzzin returned a 1st and a couple B prospects, Ekholm returned a 1st, 4th, and a B prospect, just don't really see how Matheson's value would be in that ballpark since those guys are/were clearly better players.

Only thing is that his cap hit is pretty palatable for a contending team. That does add some value if he can have another good season here.. first two games were better on the defensive side than last year but significantly worse offensively.
