Overview
- Edmonton agreed to a two-year, $1.775 million deal with forward Quinn Hutson, carrying an average annual value of $875,000.
- The contract replaces the remaining year of his entry-level deal at the same cap hit, effectively ending that agreement early without added cost.
- Hutson leads AHL Bakersfield with 23 goals and 38 points in 30 games and was named the AHL’s Rookie of the Month for December.
- He has appeared in six NHL games across two seasons and recorded his first NHL goal on Dec. 18 against the Bruins.
- An undrafted Boston University product who signed with Edmonton in April 2025, Hutson is viewed as a low-cost depth option with bottom‑six upside.
