Big move by Kent Hughes and it is now confirmed with a scoop from Elliotte Friedman
Elliotte Friedman is a leading figure when it comes to NHL insiders, and we're starting to see why, especially with Kent Hughes and the Canadiens involved this time.
Indeed, the Sportsnet analyst received a text from a Canadiens player with a very interesting scoop directly involving Lane Hutson.
We had been wondering how he could gather such privileged information, and now we know, as he is directly connected with players and management.
The identity of the player remains confidential, but the message was very clear, according to reports from the site Danslescoulisses.com.
If players within the Canadiens organization believe that Lane Hutson will be a candidate for the Calder Trophy, that's very revealing. The young defenseman is expected to start the season in Montreal and already be quite dominant.
There are currently many questions surrounding the Canadiens' defensemen, especially since Jeff Gorton stated that there aren't too many defensemen and that, if necessary, young players will start in Laval.
This directly pertains to David Reinbacher and Lane Hutson, but this scoop changes everything. Lane Hutson is a special player and belongs in the NHL.
