As we told you this morning, Lane Hutson's numbers in his first NCAA season are simply mind-boggling. He eclipsed those of a certain Cale Makar in the same league, at the same age. You can't learn to have such a dominant offensive flair as a defender. The CH gave him his chance despite his small stature, and no one was disappointed. Paired with Reinbacher, Hutson admits that the Habs' most recent first-round pick is the perfect type of defenseman to play on the same pair as him. Imagine what it could be like in a few years with the Habs. Getting back to Reinbacher, he also had kind words for Hutson. <q> When you play with Lane, you get the puck quickly and you can give it back to him. After that, you have fun watching him. He's a really good offensive defenseman. I hope it's not too much of a comparison, but Hutson is in the Cale Makar mold. He skates so well, he does incredible things on ice. I'd love to play with him in the future. But there's still a long way to go before we start thinking about Montreal. - David Reinbacher</q> Wow, to compare a Canadiens prospect to none other than Cale Makar is just incredible! We really do have a great defensive prospect on the Habs, probably the best in the NHL. <blockquote class=twitter-tweet><p lang=fr dir=ltr>To tell you the truth, I had chills after the reaction of the spectators for my presence in the shootout - David Reinbacher<br><br>Reinbacher also compared his blue-line partner to one of the best defensemen in the NHL. <a href=https://t.co/GcQV1AinOI>https://t.co/GcQV1AinOI</a>- J-F Chaumont (@JFChaumontJDM) <a href=https://twitter.com/JFChaumontJDM/status/1676283245564928015?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw>July 4, 2023</a></blockquote> <script async src=https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js charset=utf-8>
