What It Means:

Hutchinson's last start came on December 10 as Connor Hellebuyck has been in goal the last four games. In that game versus the Calgary Flames, the 26-year-old netminder struggled, allowing four goals on 29 shots faced. He will look to bounce back versus the NHL's 23rd-ranked offense as the Canucks have scored only 2.45 goals on 28.7 shots per game this season.

Our models have Hutchinson as the 16th-best goalie option -- out of 20 -- with projections of 2.7 goals allowed, 26.0 saves and a 43.0 percent chance of winning.
