Hutchinson could work with a good backup
his down years in WPG his LD was Stuart,Enstrom and Chariot so he got Carey Price level screwed .
Price was vocal in 2015 about out LD being unwilling to commit to blocking shots and instead screen him for the opponent .
he was criticizing our core or Beaulieu , Emelin to step into a top 4 role when Markov went down after Christmas missing 20 games
this prompted MB to acquire Nesterov ,Davidson and Benn
Hutchinson could play 40-50 games maintaining his .908% saves and 2.70 GAA if he had a Veteran Goalie backing him .
Ward would do if he plays half as well as he did last year where CHI Dcore was Duncan Keith and Gustafsson who plays as much Defense as Subban does
in TML Hutchinson/Ward would have Reilly-Barry,Muzzin-Ceci, Harpur-Duszak to rely on which is actually really solid when you factor in Demott is back in November .
Hutchinson /Ward together could create a Tandem good enough to fill the void but not replace Andersen completely
if you really wanna grab a cheap goalie who's got decent numbers and can get you 20-25 wins as a back up its Brian Elliott
Hutchinson -Elliott could work out especially where it gives them a Left handed and Right handed goalie for match ups
Eli liked this.
