Since the contract was registered for this season, the first year gets burned even if he didn't play since Hutson is 20. The slide rule only applies to teenagers.
Going back a few years, the Devils signed Joey Anderson and his first year burned without him playing. I believe the same happened with Alex Lyon and and Philadelphia.
Yup, it’s the player’s age at September 15th of the calendar year when he signs. This time last year, Luke Hughes counted as 20 even though he didn’t officially turn 20 until September 9.You sure? Isn't it the year not the age. So since it's his 19 year old season, it should apply to him.
or it is a special fan baseFor a late 2nd round pick to generate that much attention means he is a special player. Let’s see if it translates
It is. Doesn't take away from Hutson being a great gamble with a second round pick from the kulak trade does it?or it is a special fan base
Ah, calender year. I thought it was season year.Yup, it’s the player’s age at September 15th of the calendar year when he signs. This time last year, Luke Hughes counted as 20 even though he didn’t officially turn 20 until September 9.

This is out of necessity and I wouldn't expect it's the long term plan at all. Nice to have some flexibility but I think he'll be back on left D to start next seasonHutson is going to improve his skating and he's going to play closer to a rover style.
Obviously he needs a shutdown partner and right now we got Guhle who plays off wing as well as Reinbacher.
In a few years see a big headache for opposing teams in...
Reinbacher-Hutson
Mailioux-Ghule
Barron-X (Barron needs to take it to another level. X has offense potential)
Or...spread offense...
Reinbacher-Hutson
Matheson-Ghule (second scoring pair)
X-Mailioux (played together in AHL, but obviously not ideal shutdown pair)
There is also a really wild possibility of putting Mailioux with Hutson and creating offensive nightmare...as well as defensive nightmare. Run and gun going wild....
At least now we can see a much clearer picture of what the future brings vs perpetual mediocrity.
One of the problems is that our two most offensive players, actually 3 with Matheson are going to need exceptional shut down partners. Rein and Ghule are the first two to go with Hutson and Mailman.This is out of necessity and I wouldn't expect it's the long term plan at all.

They need to hire the city's top trainer and find a way to have him gain 5-10 pounds of muscle from now until next seasonFor a late 2nd round pick to generate that much attention means he is a special player. Let’s see if it translates
Don't think Matheson will be in the plans long term to be honest, unless Hutson is a bust I just don't see how Matheson gets another deal here. Once they have to pay all these guys I don't think they can afford to have Matheson at whatever raise he's looking at anyways. Unless any of the 3 force their hand in camp I think Hutson, Reinbacher, Mailloux all start in LavalOne of the problems is that our two most offensive players, actually 3 with Matheson are going to need exceptional shut down partners.

Savard is too old and slow to pair with Matheson so we do have a need for another top RHD to balance out.
BTW, for those who are not paying attention, Mailman is one point away from top scoring defenseman in the AHL. I think he will take top spot.
Mailman didn't get a look in the big club because he's chasing the scoring title.Don't think Matheson will be in the plans long term to be honest, unless Hutson is a bust I just don't see how Matheson gets another deal here.

Hutson-Reinbacher
Guhle-Mailloux
Xhekaj-whoever
In a couple years I think is what they're hoping/planning for
Good, accurate post.Hutson is going to improve his skating and he's going to play closer to a rover style.
Obviously he needs a shutdown partner and right now we got Guhle who plays off wing as well as Reinbacher.

I just want him to score so i can say "Looking Hut, son!"For a late 2nd round pick to generate that much attention means he is a special player. Let’s see if it translates
Or you know.. somewhere in betweenHands down the most interesting prospect for the Habs. If he turns out... He's going to be something special. If he doesn't, then it was a worthwhile gamble.
Now, if he could only skate like Zellweger.It’ll be interesting to see how he does
Zellweger is 6 months older, made the jump earlier this year and looks like he’s not going back to the ahl. Built similarly physically(zellweger a little more solid)
I think hutson will be dangerous offensively, but interested to see how he fairs defensively. Regardless he’s gunna be fun to watch
It's the Habs, you'll probably see his name in trade proposals this summer.if he doesn't score 17 goals in his 1st NHL game.If we start seeing his name come up in trade proposals in 2 years that's a bad sign
That's ridiculous. We'll be satisfied with 15. As long as he has more assists than goals.It's the Habs, you'll probably see his name in trade proposals this summer.if he doesn't score 17 goals in his 1st NHL game.
Maybe. But nah.I just want him to score so i can say "Looking Hut, son!"
Seriously though.. so much hype! I think 90% of it has to do with the numbers he put up in at BU surpassing Makar's, who were pretty nice to begin with. I'll hold off on buying a seat on St Catherine in Mtl, but im psyched!
Or you know.. somewhere in between
What do you think is the threshold for "special" here? Makar/Q Hughes numbers? 70ish points?
