According to Elliote Friedman about the latest episode of the 32 thought podcastMontreal Canadiens fans are on a social media freakout about Lane Hutson and what the recent deals for Luke Hughes and Jackson Lacombe mean. Does this mean that defender Lane Hutson is a lock to get more than $ 9 million per season?
Friedman noted that one of my theories is that the Canadiens are trying to keep this kind of information under wraps and that the two parties have worked to hammer a deal and get it done. The Lacombe deal with eight times nine changes things a bit, but Friedman does not believe it will be a lot. Although some Canadiens -fans are worried that Hutson is now a lock to get $ 10 or $ 11 million, and that he gets more than Noah Dobson ($ 9.5 million), Friedman noted: “I have thought a lot about this. I don’t think the eight times nine for Lacombe really hurts.”
He added:
“In fact, I would think that what these two teams are talking about, it is not far from there with an eight -year -old deal. Huton is 9ish. I saw the Canadiens trying to get a little lower. I see Hutson and his camp trying to get a little higher.”

Friedman added: “But I just think this is one of those deals, or I get the feeling that, just say that we are on the five-year line. Just say for the argument that we are in the five-year line. I think Hutson’s camp has an idea of ​​where they are to be.
He did repeat: “I don’t think eight times nine is too far away.”
Friedman did not believe that eight times nine ISH is unrealistic for this player, although he looks at the idea that the Canadians want the player to give a little and the player wants the team to give a little. It can take some time before the two parties get this deal in the end zone.
Someone will have to bow to get this done for the season.
