Confirmed Trade: [TOR/ARI] Leafs acquire Carter Hutton for future considerations

[T_Cage]

Did Mrazek, Hutch, Woll, Kallgren and Scott all catch Covid??

I don’t see any other need for Hutton, who might not even start for the Growlers

 

[seafoam]

But why

If you have to ask then you don't know. /s

He's basically and professional EBUG instead of that guy that beat the Leafs a few years ago.

 

[DingDongCharlie]

Depth is never a bad thing. But hopefully the leafs don’t see him in net at all.

Quality depth yes, Carter Hutton has to be the worst NHL goalies to see some what regular action over the last few years.

There's more to this move, for sure. Maybe a favour to the Coyotes, who knows. It's pretty obvious looking at the Leafs depth chart that he'd be lucky to even make a start with the Marlies.

Agreed. But he’s depth. Not quality but just plain ole depth

 

[Vitto79]

Did AZ make them take the contract of Hutton if Dzingel has value on waivers ?

Yes but NHL GMs/coaches are taking Hutton everyday over (looks at) Ian Scott or Erik Kallgren.

It's just what playoff teams do.

 

[Mike Jones]

Probably because they felt ripped off in the trade after losing Dzingel.

But this might be also because a goaltender might be getting traded for Chychrun.

That's what I thought when I heard about this trade - replacing the guy who was lost on waivers.

 

[cgc83]

something that was most likely negotiated from saturdays trade ?!
Leafs would agree to take hutton if Dzingel was claimed . dzingels contract and money have disappeared now they can support hutton

 

[Fogelhund]

Ho Sang to Yotes?

 

[banks]

This move is totally on-brand for Kyle Dubas. He has a history of bringing in AHL depth that has NHL experience at the deadline.

In the last 2 years:
Cale Rosen
Riley Nash
Dave Rittich
Ben Hutton

And he just tried to get Dzingle to the AHL, too. It's what Dubas does. Wouldn't surprise me in the least if we saw the Leafs acquire another player, maybe a forward, who fits that description.

 

[TheDoldrums]

turns out by "future considerations" they meant throwing the game against Montreal to help Arizona's draft position

 

[MagicalRazor]

Solid 7.76 GAA this season

 

[Maurice of Orange]

How much depth does Toronto need in goal.

Campbell, Mrazek, Hutchinson, Woll, Kallgren, Scott and now Hutton.

Mrazek and Hutchinson haven’t looked good at all this year. This is a good depth move.

 

[moosemeister]

Hutton isn’t playing again. He’s done. He’s LTIRetired

I’m guessing AZ doesn’t want to pay since he’s not insured. Leafs can just pay for his contract like they pay for everything else for the Coyotes.

thanks babes

 

[Maurice of Orange]

You haven’t seen Hutton play within the last 2 years then. If Toronto expects to compete with Hutton in goal they won’t be going to far.

 

[TheLegend]

“Future considerations.”

 

[Kocur Dill]

But why

Hahahaha, OMG. My first thought verbatim. Scroll, there it is.

 

[Djp]

Three blind mice comes to mind….

 

[MMC]

So the "more to the story" is that he's staying with the Roadrunners

 

[hbk]

Thanks Toronto for paying his salary.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Thanks Toronto for paying his salary.

He only cost the remaining 375,000 and has cleared waivers.

 

[Art.Vandelay]

Per Craig Morgan, the Leafs will loan Hutton to the Roadrunners. Still seems like there is more to this.

 

[hbk]

It is still very generous. Its like someone picking up the check after a great meal.
