Rookie Alert: Hutson Hits the Big League with the Habs!

Canadiens fans, brace yourselves! Lane Hutson, the 20-year-old Boston University prodigy, is bringing his A-game to the NHL, penning a sweet 3-year entry-level deal with the Montreal Canadiens. Hutson is ready to lace up his skates and break into the big leagues—could Monday or Tuesday be his red-letter day against Red Wings?

With stats that scream 'next big thing'—we're talking 49 points in 38 games—this kid tied for NCAA lead among D-men in his sophomore year. The end of his college season might've been bittersweet, but Montreal's got something to cheer about as Hutson's ready to charge the ice and chase that puck.

Don't blink or you'll miss the action, because Hutson is a Hobey Baker Award top-10 contender—twice!—and a Hockey East First-Team All-Star, twice in a row. And with 97 points over two seasons and a knack for game-winning goals, this second-round draft pick is the Habs' ray of hope as they wrap up their season. Three games left, Canadiens Nation—let's make them count! Hutson is meeting his new squad in Detroit, gearing up for a grand showdown. Will the Sens feel the sting on Saturday at 7 p.m. ET, before Hutson turns the Red Wings battles into his own personal ice capades? Stay tuned with Statbet—keeping you at the heart of the puck drop!
