Lane Hutson Throws Unnecessary Blame During Press Conference Following Canadiens' Loss

Young Montreal Canadiens defenseman Lane Hutson is extremely competitive. We know he's truly passionate, and we also know he can be way too hard on himself at times.
That's exactly what we saw during the press conference last night.
After the Canadiens' overtime loss, Hutson was extremely critical of himself and placed a large part of the blame on his own shoulders.
Well, I'm going to defend him!
Unlike Derek Lalonde, I don't necessarily believe there's anyone to blame...
But if there is someone to blame, it's definitely not Lane Hutson.
Lane Hutson Needlessly Takes the Blame on Himself
I fully understand why he did it, but I still wanted to defend him. Without Lane Hutson, there wouldn't have even been an overtime last night.
Once again, he was the spark plug, and once again, he picked up two big assists.

"It's frustrating for sure. I lost my check twice and they scored. It's something I gotta learn from. It just sucks that it ended that way."

He's blaming himself for two Capitals goals, when he really shouldn't be.
Lane Hutson last night after the Habs game 1 OT loss:
"Most of us are learning on the fly. Just be ready for whatever can happen. Having good resiliency as we've had all year is gonna be huge for us in these games.
It was my first (playoff) game and you never know what to expect. That was physical for sure. It was physical for everyone."

That-I love!
The good news is that I fully expect Hutson to come back even stronger and more impactful in Game 2 tomorrow night.
The kid is truly impressive!
