LD Lane Hutson - Montreal Canadiens, NHL (2022, 62nd, MTL) - Part 2

[Agent Zuuuub]

i don't know how you can be a fan of hockey but not be a fan of players like hutson.

everyone should want him to succeed, game would be better for it.

 

[montreal]

Some have been doubting him but i've been saying I think he will be in the Adam Fox mold. Just look at the show he put on at rookie camp vs the leafs, the title says it all,

 

[SannywithoutCompy]

sure Hutson with a 27.78 Corsi For% against Toronto "lead both teams in puck possession." In actuality he was below Barron, Matheson, Savard and every single Leafs defender. xGF% even worse. He was not remotely the best dman on the ice that game, the gaslighting is nuts.

He did, in literal puck possession.

This seems like an indictment on Barron Xhekaj Matheson and Guhle. (Especially Xhekaj and Barron who have looked utterly horrific)

He didn't have a great game vs Toronto, but was excellent vs Boston

Habs' prospect, so people don't like the Habs, but more so their fans and as a hab fan I get it.

That's why people don't want him to succeed. They know if he does well, hab fans will become more obnoxious like any big fan base that has a promising player.

I think offensively the sky is the limit. Thr issue will be how well he defends which he can learn and improve upon even if it’s never a strength of his game. I also think some of thr criticism is just folks taking jabs for thr sake of it. Montreal isn’t likely to make a playoff run quite yet which allows the team to just work on developing his game and allows the fans to just enjoy the journey for now.

Some people are and have been pumping his brakes like is the next Bobby Orr or Makar or Hughes when he clearly isn't.

I think that someone misunderstood the meaning of 'Pumping the Brakes'...

Yeah yeah yeah

It's not that Hutson might be good, it's that everyone sucks!!!

There's a lot of thing "someone" seems to misunderstand IMO

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

Looked good so far to me . Elusive .

 

[Next Best Thing]

Calder race will be insane this year

Letting up more than FIVE expected goals/60 5v5 is truly horrific.

For context, since 2007, 4741 dmen have had seasons where they played at least 50 minutes 5v5 (about 4-5 games worth). Not a single one has given up more than 5 xgoals/60 5v5

2.31xGoals/60 against 5v5 is certainly good, but it's not anything incredible (for context, out of those same 4741 dmen seasons, it would rank 2241st, although important to note that scoring has gone up).

Hutson has had good results.

But if 2 games is enough of a sample size on the positive side for Hutson, you should be VERY VERY concerned about how poorly everyone else has played in that same sample size

Oh shit, I didn't know that having a bit of fun was not well regarded by Sir Wetcoast
We don't want to trouble Serious Wetcoast in this Serious thread

Sorry it bothered/triggered you

It doesn't bother me but you constantly pump the tires on hutson and roy beyond belief and this is a discussion forum right?......

Also don't call me sir I'm not that old nor distinguished.....

 

[wetcoast]

Maybe if you watched the games on tv it would help

I do but I don't even drink the kool-aid of my Canucks nor do I of other teams as I try to remain objective in all viewings.

Isn't it the wayward son that is supposed to carry on?

Ya it is , i was tired and too lazy to confirm it, my bad.

 

[jiboy]

Hes very impressive , the way team defense seems to freeze when he has the puck is amazing to see for a guy who has not even played 10 nhl games.

Hes an offensive genius its that simple.

Remains to be seen how he will deal with his physical limitations but his mind is something else.

More context with this against Boston:

-Hutson played the second most minutes on Montreal
-He started more shifts in the defensive zone than any other defenseman
-He was on the ice against Pastrnak more than any other Hab

There's gonna be speed bumps this year, no question. But it looks like the coaching staff already trusts him.

True enough

I've figured that out, it was obvious sarcasm
