Hutson has had a season to remember with the USNTDP, and it helps that he had a good mentor in...
BASEL, Switzerland – Many scouts knew Lane Hutson fell through the cracks. The talent, the speed, the offensive awareness. It was all there. He wasn’t the 62nd-best player in the 2022 NHL Draft.
At 16, Cole is already receiving much of the same praise as Lane was back in the day. Lane was a top-flight offensive defenseman with the USNTDP, putting up great points with the U-18 team as an underager. His offensive skill was never questioned. And the same goes for Cole, who had 17 points in 13 games while playing top-four minutes and tons of power-play time with the U-18 squad.
“The first few games were a bit different, just getting used to the team and the different systems,” Hutson said. “But it didn’t take long to get adjusted.” Cole doesn’t let his size keep him down. He uses it to escape opponents with ease, and his lower center of gravity allows him to lands hits lower on a player that can take them out of the play. He’s not overly strong, but he still puts a ton of power behind his shot, and the results speak for themselves. And while there’s still the occasional defensive snafus, there aren’t many times where Hutson doesn’t find a way to make up for it.
Those are bold words, and it helps that Cole has fit in so well offensively with Eiserman and Hagens, who could go No. 1 in 2024 and 2025, respectively. But in a vacuum, no matter the situation, Hutson still stands out.
