Despite the hype surrounding young blueliners, there are key questions facing the Montreal Canadiens, including how to handle prospects like Lane Hutson next season. With a logjam on the blue line and various factors at play, it's uncertain how the team will navigate the roster situation.

Amidst the uncertainties, the AHL could potentially offer an environment for Hutson's development, providing more ice time and opportunities compared to a rotational role with the Canadiens. Patience and a steady approach to player development may be key for his long-term success.
