Cole Hutson Chips In in Capitals' Loss
Defenseman supplied an assist and fired several shots while logging over twenty minutes in Washington’s defeat
Cole Hutson assisted on a Washington goal, took five shots and played 20:02 in the Caps' 5-3 loss. He finished with one assist for one point, no goals, a neutral plus-minus and no penalties.
On the scoresheet he contributed one assist and skated 22 shifts. Defensively he registered 1 blocked shot and 1 hit, with no takeaways or giveaways. His season totals after this game are three points in five games (one goal, two assists) and 14 shots on goal; he’s averaging 18.6 minutes per game this season, so tonight’s 20:02 was slightly above his season average. Among Washington’s skaters he ranked 6th in ice time and 4th among the six defencemen.
A quiet but active night offensively — five shots and an assist — that tied into his modest season output to date.
