- Start date
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?

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.

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 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.

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

Has done everything you could hope a prospect could do other than do it for a large sample size, but you obviously cannot fault him for that.
Can't play defense when the puck is always on your stick

No one is doubting the offense, the overall game is still going to be a work in progress just wait.
I didn't realize that Josh Norris and Kyle Calder have trophies named after them?
Looks at first game this year with a 43.2 CF% pretty sure it didn't get better in a 6-4 loss tonight but sure carry on wayward friend.

I mean he had over an 80 xgf%, so not really sure where you're getting that idea
Some people are and have been pumping his brakes like is the next Bobby Orr or Makar or Hughes when he clearly isn't.
Nobody is doing that. You're chasing ghosts in your head
