Saturday evening was difficult for Lane Hutson who had one of the worst performances of his career in terms of differential, during the Canadian’s 7-3 defeat against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The young 20-year-old defender finished the match with a differential of -5. In this match, CH saw its 3-0 lead disappear in a comeback from the Leafs.
Hutson didn’t make excuses after the game.
I have to be better, both for my teammates and for the fans
Lane Hutson
Although he extended his streak of consecutive games with at least one point to seven with an assist on Patrik Laine on the power play, Hutson had difficulty in his defensive zone. The sequence that attracts the most attention is that of the equalizing goal of William Nylander, who mocked him in order to escape.
Despite everything, the head coach Martin St. Louis wanted to reassure the media.
I’m not worried with Lane, he’s a competitor. He is probably happy that we are playing on Sunday, he will be able to demonstrate it again.

Despite everything, St. Louis saw positives in Saturday night’s game.
We have the chance to respond and correct ourselves a little. Yes, there is the score, but there was a lot of positive in this match. I’m not going to find all the answers in a few hours, the games happen so quickly and the effort was there.
Martin St. Louis
In 45 games this season, the CH defender has amassed three goals and 34 assists for a total of 37 points.
The Canadian will not have much time to digest this defeat, as he will host the New York Rangers on Sunday evening. Jakub Dobes should get his first start at the Bell Centre.
