The Nashville Predators Should Give Ben Hutton A Chance
As the Nashville Predators bottom defense pairing is looking weak, GM David Poile should consider bringing in unrestricted free agent Ben Hutton.
The Nashville Predators bottom pairing options currently consist of Dan Hamhuis, Yannick Weber and Matt Irwin, all of which being less than impressive, which is why they should take a flier on Ben Hutton.
Hutton, who is currently going into his fifth NHL season, was supposed to be a restricted free agent, but the Vancouver Canucks decided not to tender his qualifying offer.
It is a mystery to me as to why they didn’t do so, as he has been a solid piece to their defense ever since he debuted in 2015.
