2024 Fantasy Outlook

Hutson made his NHL debut last season, suiting up in the final two games of the regular season in which he recorded two assists, three shots and one hit while averaging 22:43 of ice time. Looking ahead to the upcoming campaign, the 20-year-old blueliner should be a full-time roster player for the Habs and could even see time with the No. 2 power-play unit. During his two-year stint at Boston University, the Michigan-born defenseman put his offensive upside on full display with 30 goals and 67 helpers in 77 outings. If he can translate that to the NHL level, Hutson could be in the mix for a rookie campaign similar to that of New York's Adam Fox, who notched eight goals and 34 helpers in 70 appearances back in 2019-20.

Grabs trio of apples in win

DMontreal Canadiens

March 31, 2025

Hutson distributed three assists and blocked three shots in Sunday's 4-2 win over Florida.

ANALYSIS
Hutson's first two helpers came with a man advantage on power-play goals scored by Patrik Laine and Juraj Slafkovsky across the first two periods. Hutson then had the primary assist on Nick Suzuki's game-winning goal early in the third period. Hutson's three apples Sunday brings his season totals up to 54 assists, 59 points and 109 blocks in 73 games this season. At just 21 years old, Hutson is not only a premier playmaker on the blue line, but across the entire NHL. The rookie has burst onto the scene, ranking tied for ninth in the league in assists and finds himself in the top three among defensemen. Hutson has 10 points in his last nine games and has elite value for the remainder of the fantasy playoffs.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

MTL

Strong contender for roster spot

DMontreal Canadiens

September 15, 2024

Arpon Basu of The Athletic believes Hutson will start the 2024-25 campaign on the NHL roster.

ANALYSIS
Hutson made a positive impression while playing against other prospects for two games Sept 14/15 ahead of the start of training camp, and he already seemed to be in a good position after a strong 2023-24 campaign with Boston University in which he had 15 goals and 49 points in 38 contests followed by the young defenseman providing two assists across two appearances with Montreal. While the 20-year-old is still not guaranteed a roster spot, there is an opening for him to not only play for the Canadiens but also to receive a top-four role and some power-play ice time. In that scenario, he might do enough offensively to be one of this season's top rookie defensemen.
