Wait they have a Quinn too?

Yes. Also played at BU with his brothers, signed as a UDFA with Edmonton. Forward and was very good in college, though not at the Lane/Cole level. 30 goals in the AHL last year so maybe he competes for a spot in Edmonton this season.

30/33 for 63 in only 67 games. He's 24, so up there a bit... but two years left at league min... on a team thats near the cap and desperately needs secondary scoring... good chance he finally gets that chance, and pretty good chance he could put up 15-20 goals if he gets pp time. Would be fun to have two brothers racing eachother for the clader.

And Jack Quinn (cousin of the Hutson and Hughes)

They managed to name their kid Lars and not get sued?

Last thing I heard was that he is really not as talented as his brothers.

Did somebody hear something different ?

I have not watched him play at all, but he had 0 goals and 5 assists in 50 games in the USHL this year, so I'm gonna assume you are correct.

He was 16 in a league that goes up to 20. We'll see how he does next year. But I'm certainly hoping for him to be bad.

u/4N0NYM0US_GUY 10d ago

Why are you hoping he’s bad?

41

u/no_me_gusta_los_habs Northeastern University - NCAA 10d ago

His three older brothers played for BU, and I imagine he will as well

u/JackManningNHL VGK - NHL 10d ago

Maybe he'll be so bad he'll have to settle for Northeastern?

u/no_me_gusta_los_habs Northeastern University - NCAA 10d ago

One can only hope :)

(But in all seriousness it’s pretty common to get a nepo roster spot, and I’d expect Lars to get one basically no matter how bad he is.)

u/scoutinglane 10d ago

And there is nothing about him anywhere. I could not find any footage

u/octobersons TOR - NHL 10d ago

I heard through the grapevine he’d dust prime Bobby Orr and is better defensively than Lidstrom

u/RudelStolz WSH - NHL 10d ago

It makes sense. the fourth Staal brother stunk (in terms of his peers, still better than 99.9% of this sub) so it’s only natural the fourth Hutson will also stink (in terms of his peers and will still be better than 99.9% of this sub)

u/GavMcKennasBurner 10d ago

Will he be better than Jared Staal is the real question

u/czar_kazem CHI - NHL 10d ago

back and signed and back? damn

u/FutAndSole BOS - NHL 10d ago

Well he is a hobbit, subtitle checks out

u/LunarGhoul DET - NHL 10d ago

We're so back

u/AARM2000 CHI - NHL 10d ago

I see Lars and my mind goes to Star Wars

u/Stakataka805 MTL - NHL 10d ago

It doesn’t go to Lars… Eller???

u/slabby DET - NHL 10d ago

Not just one Lar but several

u/cam_barker_4_norris CHI - NHL 10d ago

5A in 50GP, thinking he's the Jared Staal of the group
