Lots, but Hamilton, Hughes, and Casey are ahead of him on the offensive part. NJ is stacked

IMO Casey shouldn't be ahead of him. Nemec was dropped in my keeper league because he wouldn't get PP time when Hughes is healthy.

Already 2 excellent assists tonight, 4 points in 4 NHL games.

Anyone still doubting?

 

[mphmiles]

The poise/patience has been on display tonight.

His ability to hold the puck and freeze defenders buys all of his teammates so much time to find open ice.

 

[JeffreyLFC]

He is the real and always has been. He will never be elite defensively but he can generates so much offense. A difference maker with the puck on his stick.

 

[CanadienShark]

I can't wait to see him in 5 years. He's clearly still developing, but is already impactful offensively even without the points.

Casey is not even in the same league as Hutson.

Yes, after one NHL regular season game, people might still doubt LOL

It's now 4. 2 against a DET team playing for its playoff life last April and 2 of the powers of the league.

Ok, you're right. Hand him the Norris.

OK Mr Grouch, we get it, you are a skeptic. No one is saying he will win the Norris but the point is we heard constantly ''Hutson won't make it against men in the best league'' or ''His game will be exposed in the NHL'' and so far, there is zero evidence of that happening.

 

[CanadienShark]

Ok, you're right. Hand him the Norris.

You made an incorrect statement and were corrected, so you reply sarcastically. Got it.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Ok, you're right. Hand him the Norris.

The points are really irrelevant. All you have to do is watch a few games and it is obvious he is able to do things and see the ice like very few can.

I'm skeptical, but I wouldn't go as far as doubtful. I need to see a larger sample size to consider it meaningful, but so far so good.

FTR: I've never really had a strong opinion of Hutson either way, so I have no skin in any of this.
