Hutton scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Hutton has scored twice on nine shots over six games in December. He continues to see steady time on the third pairing in the absence of Jeremy Lauzon (undisclosed). Hutton has appeared in every game since Nov. 16 and in 24 of 31 contests this season, earning nine points, 36 shots on net, 21 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating.

Hutton scored a goal in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Hutton is on a three-game point streak (one goal, two assists). He's earned five points over his last eight outings, and he's up to three goals, eight points, 28 shots on net, 19 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating through 19 appearances. While he won't be a regular in the lineup when the Golden Knights are healthy on defense, Hutton should continue to play until Jeremy Lauzon (undisclosed) is ready to return, though he's done enough to potentially carve out a part-time role after that time.

Hutton scored a goal, placed four shots on net and recorded a block in Thursday's 4-1 win over Utah.

EDGE Analysis

Hutton scored the second goal of the game just 19 seconds after Jack Eichel netted the team's first score. With the twine finder, the 32-year-old Hutton has two goals, five points, 21 shots on net and 15 blocks through 13 appearances this season. He's stepped up with goals in back-to-back games in the absence of Jeremy Lauzon (undisclosed). While Hutton's inconsistency finding the lineup caps his ceiling in fantasy, it's an encouraging sign to see him firing the puck and being rewarded. If the Golden Knights experience more injuries on the blue line this season, Hutton should see a heightened role.

Hutton scored a goal in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Hutton will get another chance in the lineup during the absence of Jeremy Lauzon (undisclosed), who landed on injured reserve Tuesday. The 32-year-old Hutton has done pretty well when in the lineup this year, racking up four points, 17 shots on net, 14 blocked shots, seven hits and a minus-1 rating through 12 appearances. He's already doubled his point total and surpassed his games played from last year, and his goal Tuesday was his first since late in the 2023-24 season.

Hutton notched an assist in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Hutton didn't play in Wednesday's season opener versus the Kings, but he drew in for Noah Hanifin (undisclosed) Thursday. The 32-year-old Hutton made just 11 appearances during the 2024-25 regular season, but the Golden Knights' defense isn't as deep as it was last year, which could open the door for him to play more as the next man up. Even if he's in the lineup regularly, don't expect the Ontario native to do much with his minutes -- he hasn't blocked 100 shots in a season since 2018-19, which was also the last time he reached the 20-point and 60-game marks.

Hutton logged two assists and two blocked shots in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Hutton helped out on third-period goals by Pavel Dorofeyev and Jack Eichel. These were Hutton's first two points in 11 contests this season. He added 11 shots on net, 10 hits, 19 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating. The 31-year-old defenseman played in the last five games of the regular season, but it's expected he'll be a healthy scratch for the vast majority of the Golden Knights' playoff run.

Hutton suited up for the second game in a row in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

Nicolas Hague and Alex Pietrangelo have been sidelined by illness in each of the last two games, allowing Hutton a rare chance to play. Hutton hasn't done much in a third-pairing role, and he'll likely be back in the press box when the Golden Knights' defense is healthy again. He's gotten into just eight games this season, logging 11 shots on net, eight blocked shots, six hits and a minus-1 rating while failing to record a point.

Hutton was scratched for the 27th consecutive game in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.

EDGE Analysis

While Shea Theodore (arm) has been out of action since sustaining an injury at the 4 Nations Face-Off, it has been Kaedan Korczak and not Hutton in the lineup as the injury replacement. Hutton is assured to play a career-low number of games this season -- he's made just five appearances this season while logging six shots on net, five blocked shots and three hits. The 31-year-old's only path to playing time would be for more injuries to sideline Vegas blueliners.

Hutton has been a healthy scratch for 17 straight games after sitting out Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

Hutton missed 16 games while on long-term injured reserve due to an upper-body injury. Prior that absence, he had earned some playing time while the Golden Knights' blue line was banged up, but since he was activated, there have been no significant injuries to Vegas' defensemen. It's not unusual for Hutton to be out of the lineup for long periods of time as a spare defenseman, though he's sharing that status with Kaedan Korczak this season. Hutton has no points, six shots on net, five blocked shots and three hits over five appearances this season.

Hutton (upper body) was taken off long-term injured reserve Friday, per PuckPedia.

EDGE Analysis

Hutton hasn't played since Nov. 17 due to the injury. He has no points, three hits and five blocks in five appearances with the Golden Knights in 2024-25. Hutton is a depth defenseman who isn't expected to be in the lineup regularly.
