Ben's a good kid. A victim of that one promising year but on the other hand being overpaid for 2 years isn't the worst thing that could happen to him. Glad he's got a good landing spot tho. 

I am happy for Ben as well. I am also hoping he is one of the last examples of poor player development. He came onto the roster with almost zero AHL exposure. Canucks were desperate for blueline help and Hutton was rushed into the NHL. His early success set expectations way to high and continued injuries forced way to much TOI on him. His history with the Canucks was much like Mason Raymond. Hutton does have some ability and I hope he can stick in the NHL.

Glad to see Hutton get another shot.

 

He's just heading into that period of his life at 26 where the next level of maturity kicks with more focus and seriousness. Imo, he'll be organically approaching the game more as a man than the smiley kid that we saw. That should only help his game at this point. 

 

I wish him all the best!
