Hutson scored a goal and added an assist in Boston University's 5-3 win over the University of New Hampshire on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Hutson has shown no ill effects after his head injury during the World Junior Championship. He's up to nine goals and 27 points in 30 appearances for the Terriers this season, and he had four points in three games with Team USA during the WJC. Hutson's offense is down from last year's 48-point effort in 39 contests, but that is likely a product of the Terriers' struggles more than it is something the defenseman can control on his own.

Hutson scored twice on 10 shots in Boston University's 4-3 overtime win over Northeastern University on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Hutson has had no hesitation to shoot this season, racking up seven goals and 11 helpers in 14 games. The 19-year-old blueliner continues to be a leader for the Terriers, and it's encouraging to see him find plenty of consistency on offense with a pace a touch better than the one he showed in a 14-goal, 48-point freshman season (39 games).

Hutson scored a goal and added four assists over two games as Boston University was swept by the University of Maine this weekend.
EDGE Analysis
Hutson had a goal and an assist in Friday's 5-4 loss, then added three helpers in an 8-5 loss Saturday. The 19-year-old is up to 13 points over nine games to begin the season for the Terriers, setting a similar pace to last year when he had 14 goals and 48 points over 39 appearances. The 19-year-old defenseman looks to be a promising scorer from the blue line, which should make Capitals fans happy in a few years.
