Ohh I thought you said he turns pro/go NHL after this season …i may have misunderstood

Fair that would be crazy.

The puck skills, vision and edge work are great. He needs to live and breath the weight room. If he can build a bottom half and core then he can be special. At minimum he’s a #1 pp guy and on the bottom pairing. If he can build some tree trunks, I think he can be a better version of Torrey Krug

I was bigger than him at 15. The skill, edge work and vision is undeniable though. Really interesting prospect.

I was bigger than him in the womb!

In three years Montreal's opponents will have to pick their poison on the penalty kill: take away Mailloux or Caufield. Hutson has the skill and vision to find the one they don't choose. Should be interesting.

Agreed. However, every league Caufield has ever played in the opposition has tried to take away off-wing shot. Yet no league has successfully shut it down. When Caufield hits his prime no one is going to be able to stop him, regardless of his future teammates.

Your poor mother.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

I think he grew 2 inches since the draft. He's now listed at 5'1.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

2 more assists for Hutson tonight, up to 10 points in 8 games. Even as a huge Hutson fan, I am kind of stunned at his production.

He also grew an inch taller in that span of time. What a draft steal.

He won’t be big enough to play in the NHL, how many NHL defencemen are his size?

He’ll play in the NHL.

[Marc the Habs Fan]

He just scored again, lol. 6 goals and 14 points in 12 games.

 

[JuJu Mobb]

I don't know what to make of this player.

Stylistically, he reminds me of Marner, but on defense.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

He won’t be big enough to play in the NHL, how many NHL defencemen are his size?

Until we know how tall he ends up being the question is worthless.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

His 2nd goal of the night:


He now has 6 goals and 14 pts in 12 games.
He already has more goals than Hughes and Makar had in their d+1 year.

Hughes had 5 goals in 32 games.
Makar had 5 goals in 34 games.

Has the same number of goals as Fox, but Fox did it in 35 games.

Shoutout to the people that had Hutson in the first half of the first round in their rankings.

There wern’t many of us, but to those that did; we are seeing some early returns.

 

[ijuka]

Only time I watched him pre-draft was at u-18s, where I thought he was team USA's best player and I saw much more in him than in Cooley for example. I get the size concerns but I feel like that's a bit outdated as a view.
