What is Hutson’s most likely path to a long-term, high-ceiling fantasy role with Montreal, given contract talks and the current core around him?
Qwiket AI:
Hutson’s path is to secure a long-term deal that stabilizes his minutes and PP time, then gradually assume top-pair responsibilities as the core matures. With Guhle, Struble, and Matheson providing depth, Hutson can roam offensively while the defensive unit stabilizes behind him, enabling year-over-year point and PP gains.
