Unveiled: The Rising NHL Stars Under 23 Who Could Redefine the Game Forever

Hutson has been a top offensive defenseman in the NHL over the last two seasons. He’s a dynamo with the puck on his stick. Hutson has high-end skill, creativity, poise and sense with the puck, often walking the blue line using his great edge work to create time to make plays. He sees the ice at an elite level and can run a first-unit power play. There’s no doubting Hutson’s offense; the doubt comes down to his defense. He’s a small defenseman without high-end feet or physicality. He works hard, but he’ll have trouble defending the fastest, strongest forwards. He’ll put up a ton of points in his career and play real minutes at even strength, but a team ideally surrounds him with defensemen who can take the tough matchups.
