Player Discussion Lane Hutson: Part 3 - Calder Edition

[sampollock]

Lane is the rookie of the year hands down

 

[Thebeastoftheeast]

I've been watching Hutson all year on TV and being amazed at how great he is, watched the last three games at home live against Florida, Boston and Philly and came away even more enamored with him.

The first shift I saw of him he went around Marchand like he was a pylon in the offensive zone and that goal he scored against Ersson the other night I had a direct angle, the puck would have hit me square in the forehead if not for the net and the glass of course, and that was a beauty shot.

Arber is fighting for his life right now.

That cross ice pass on Liane's goal went through 2 opponents...

Interesting article today (in French) about Hutson.

TL;DR Since the 4 nation tournament, Hutson gets the easy matchups and o-zone starts while Matheson/Carrier get the tough matchups and the d-zone starts. With numbers.

Il n’en est pas à sa première observation savante, mais notre collègue Guillaume Lefrançois a noté une statistique assez saisissante après la victoire du Canadien par la marque de 2-1, dimanche soir à Nashville.

Which isn't much different than how Makar or Hughes were used in their rookie seasons. He's a damn rookie.

Guillaume isn't some genius either, contrarily to what the article tries to push. There's the peanut gallery on the main board who keep digging for stats like those. We already know his OZ faceoff % is high.

To note, Matheson is used mostly with the first line.

Exploitation matchups are justified when a player is exceptionally skilled at defensively.

There's no way Hutson is 5'10 160. He looks like a 15 year old kid who asked Arber's autograph.

The point he's pushing is MSL adapted after the 4 nation tournament and it's a reason why Hutson is successful. Why the hate?

That's why he's special.

Absolute bush league by the NHL to not suspend Forsberg for that hit. That dweeb now can continue trying to concuss talented players with no ramifications. Hope Arber pays him a visit next year.

 

[CaptnNemo]

There's no way Hutson is 5'10 160. He looks like a 15 year old kid who asked Arber's autograph.

It also looks like he has disproportional huge hands compared to his overall body size. That's why he's so good!!! He can hold his stick like if it were a toothpick.

That's why I don't harp on Matheson too much. Anybody, who isn't an outright top tier defenseman in the league, would have trouble dealing with the work load he has.
