Carter Hutton had an outstanding statistical 2017-18. Over his 32 appearances, Hutton led the NHL in both GAA (2.09) and save percentage (.931). Now that he’s about to become an unrestricted free agent, the 32-year-old goaltender will be looking for a decent raise.
He just might not find it in St. Louis.
Hutton’s season with the Blues was statistically awesome, but it was also a bit of a roller coaster. He served as Jake Allen‘s backup, he was the number one starter and he had to battle through some injuries. Those injuries became a significant talking point as the season reached its conclusion.
