2024/25 season

[edit]

Since this has been disputed by @User:176.127.13, we can discuss the way Hutson's season is cover in this entry. It's gradually built up over the past few months into five paragraphs. Much of that information is relevant, but it can be presented in a more succinct manner -- I was able to work it down to one large paragraph that I feel conveys all the pertinent details.

It's also got some micro-stats that aren't terribly relevant, and it goes into excessive detail about a lot of things. He broke the Canadiens' rookie defencemen assists and points records, and tied the league points record. There is no reason to document, for instance, the point in the middle of the season where he tied Tom Kurvers for the second-most. And even if you think that "Hutson became the fourth different defenseman in Canadiens history to record a three-assist game at age 20 or younger" warrants inclusion, it is unnecessary clutter to then list the other three to do it (similarly, why does it mention that Shayne Gostisbehere is from Florida? Or mentioning a certain number of points in 35 games, which has never been a major benchmark. Sports generates all kinds of micro-stats that are interesting to talk about but quickly fill up an encyclopedia.

If you start from my proposed revision, what individual stats or mentions do you feel should be added back in? CaptainCanada (talk) 17:18, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
