Overall, Hutson tallied 14 goals and 34 assists for 48 points in 39 games with the Terriers. He also won gold with the United States at the 2025 World Junior Championship.<\/p>\n

Hutson led the Terriers to the Frozen Four after receiving the NCAA Toledo Regional Most Outstanding Player award.

Selected in the second round (43rd overall) by the Washington Capitals in the 2024 NHL Draft, Hutson set a USA Hockey NTDP record for career points by a defenseman with 119 (25 goals, 94 assists), including 51 points (15 goals, 36 assists) in 51 games in 2023-24 prior to arriving at BU.<\/p>\n
