by Bruno Mulé | Canadiens Correspondent | Sun, Jan 19th 3:56pm EST
Lane Hutson notched a power-play assist, four blocked shots, and two penalty minutes in the Canadiens' 7-3 loss to the Maple Leafs on Saturday. Despite finishing with a minus-5 rating, the rookie defenseman extended his point streak to seven games, tying a franchise record for rookie blueliners.
Fantasy Impact:
Hutson has been an offensive standout for the Canadiens, tallying one goal and 10 assists, including four on the power play, during his seven-game scoring streak. While his performance Saturday hurt his plus-minus, Hutson had significantly improved that category over the previous month. His dynamic skill set and increasing role on special teams make him a valuable fantasy option in deeper leagues, especially for managers prioritizing assists and power-play production. Expect his offensive contributions to continue as he develops further.
