Why are we just looking at this month? That is just an arbitrary interval. If you look at the season so far the picture is somewhat different. Hutton should be performing much better than Maz - that was the expectation of the team since he was awarded the backup role. Now he is a more or less playing a backup to what was initially third in line backup.
So the month where your proclaimed "better" goalie has just one win isn't one you want as a comparison? Again, interesting because if he was actually performing better it wouldn't matter what time frame was cited. Using your assertion that the team's performance immediately after Rinne's infection accounts for why Hutton's record is what it is, one would think you would want a comparison as far from that time as possible.
Combined game logs for Maz and Hut since Maz was called up ... Wins in blue, starters pulled in red, relief appearances in olive.

Just as many of the poor games belong to Maz as to Hutton. Maz lost his first couple of starts including pulled at Pitt, then had a decent run in November followed by six straight losses in decisions attributed to him before last night's win.
