Hutton has missed the last three games while in COVID-19 protocol but is set to play Saturday vs. the Kings. Hutton has 10 points (3G / 7A) in 39 games this season.

Hutton was acquired from the Ducks at the trade deadline and will make his Maple Leafs debut on Thursday with Morgan Rielly and Jake Muzzin resting. Hutton had one goal and four assists in 34 games with Anaheim.

Hutton was one of four Ducks' players that was added to the COVID-19 protocol list on Tuesday, putting Wednesday's game in jeopardy. With Hutton likely unavailable vs. the Wild, look for Andy Welkinski to draw into the lineup.

Hutton will come out of the Kings lineup Sunday vs. the Oilers, so Joakim Ryan will draw back in. Consider Hutton day-to-day.

After four years and 276 NHL games with the Canucks, Hutton is going to the Kings on a one-year deal. The 26-year-old left-shot defenseman had 20 points (5G / 15A) in 69 games last season and provides Los Angeles with a little depth while Derek Forbort recovers from a back injury.

Hutton suffered an apparent foot injury late in Sunday’s loss in Vegas. Since the start of February, Hutton ranks third in the NHL in TOI/GP (26:42) trailing just Drew Doughty and Ryan Suter, so this is a huge loss for the Canucks blueline. Vancouver recalled Guillaume Brisebois from Utica (AHL) to replace Hutton on Tuesday.

Hutton was a healthy scratch in the first two games of the season but will replace Michael Del Zotto tonight in Carolina. Hutton’s numbers have gotten worse each season, culminating in just six assists in 61 games last season.

Hutton has been out since March 14th, but will be back in tonight vs. the Coyotes. Hutton has had a tough season, picking up just six assists and is running out of time to pick up his first goal.

Hutton has been scratched for the last two games but will return tonight in Florida. Hutton has just six assists in 45 games this season. He will replace Derrick Pouliot on the blueline.
