Somebody needs to do a video tribute to the assists Hutson has lost this year because his team mates are spastic around the net.

It's would be a long tribute

That was a very entertaining game to watch.  Hutson is going to have the Calder locked down well before season's end if he keeps playing like this.

The 2nd half of the game was so much fun to watch. Hutson is pure magic. 

He was on fire, whatever reservations I had on Hutson are gone now; what a knuckle head I’ve been to not recognize how much star potential Hutson has

Absolutely agree. He took the game by the horns and made things happen. Guhle set the tone, many others played great, but Hutson was at a higher level: what a treat to watch him play tonight

Tonight I attended my first game in Montreal since Michael Ryder scored against us in April of the 2011 playoffs, winning the game for Boston (coincidentally) 5-4 in overtime, and tying the series 2-2 after they hadn’t led all game. We lost the series and Boston won the cup. After suffering through losses every game I attended for years in Los Angeles and Anaheim in the 2010s, it was nice to finally be there for a win.

 

The Habs came out strong and then were a little quiet for a long stretch. With that being said, they didn’t play extremely poorly outside of a 1-2 minute stretch where Vancouver potted 2 quickly. There weren’t any passengers out there. Everyone has bought in. There is something that feels different and while nothing is written in stone, we can only hope the Habs can keep it up.
 

Guhle was physical out there, and Hutson and Matheson are an extremely mobile pair. Struble laid the body as well. Caufield was good, Anderson used his speed and our fourth line was solid. Dach is indeed getting there. Gally has no speed but still has heart and can find success around the net. Suzuki with the snipe in overtime 🚨.

Ghule was strong all night. 

 

Suzuki is getting grumpy in his old age. He seems to be laying the body more lately.

Guhle and Carrier played a bunch of hard minutes and don’t deserve this stat card

One reason why stats don’t tell the whole story.

IMHO Newhook is playing well but (I have not checked) probably his stats are not very good

Game started boring; but was a fun game.

2/4 on the PP

Pezzetta 4 hits in 3:58

Armia 4 shots

Newhook 3 shots 3 hits at least.

Nice work by Slafkovski on Caufield's goal.

Will Caufield learn from the selfish penalty, we all guessed Canucks would score on that one.

"...Another strong Suzuki performance pushes his totals to 41 points in 40 games this season. Did I mention this team is getting exciting again? 

Stats: 1 goal, 2 assists, -1, 4 shots, 23:03 T.O.I."

Newhook and Dach were both solid last night; only one shot against while they were on the ice.

I loved the fact that the “Hughes vs Hutson” show was won so decisively by Hutson 😃 I mean, sure Hughes was playing hurt, but this was an attention-getting game by our fabulous rookie. We have the #1 D-man for our rebuild.

Happy that we got the best player in the 2022 draft considering we drafted 1st overall. Didnt expect him to be picked in the 2nd round though.
