It's rare to see a reporter scoop such news before the official announcement from the organization regarding the signing of a prospect, but it shows just how huge the excitement around Hutson is.

Hutson, 20 years old, the 62nd overall pick in 2022 (second round), has amassed 49 points in 38 games this season at Boston University, including 15 goals.
Last season, he had amassed 48 points in 39 games at Boston University, including 15 goals.
