The <a href="http://oilersnation.com/stats">Edmonton Oilers</a> are not done adding from the college hockey ranks, as the team is reportedly signing Boston University right-winger Quinn Hutson to a two-year, entry-level contract, according to Elite Prospects&#8217; Cam Robinson. 

Hutson is playing in the Frozen Four National Championship game Saturday night, where his Terriers are taking on the Western Michigan Broncos, and the deal will become official after the game, Robinson reported.
It will burn a year off his entry-level contract, making him a free agent after the 2025-26 season.

I&#39;m told that Quinn Hutson &#8211; the eldest Hutson brother, will sign a 2 year ELC with the Edmonton Oilers after tonight&#39;s NCAA National Championship game.
He&#39;ll report directly to EDM and will instantly burn a year off the deal, making him an RFA at the end of the 2025-26 season.

The 23-year-old is in his third year playing at Boston University and is coming off an electric season in which he scored 23 goals and 50 points in 37 games. Over his college career, Hutson has racked up 56 goals and 114 points in 116 games played.
Hutson is the eldest of four brothers, all playing hockey at various levels. His next youngest brother, Lane, 21, is a defenceman for the Montreal Canadiens in the midst of an excellent rookie campaign and in contention for the Calder Trophy. The next younger brother, Cole, 18, is also a defenceman, and his teammate with the Terriers. He was drafted in the second round of the 2024 draft. The youngest of the four, Lars, is another defenceman, currently playing in the USHL.
Back to Quinn, however, who received high praise in <a href="https://www.eliteprospects.com/news/nhl-prospects/the-elite-prospects-2025-ncaa-free-agency-guide">Elite Prospects&#8217; NCAA Free Agent Guide</a>.
<blockquote>Scoring in the NCAA has never been particularly difficult for Quinn Hutson, the eldest Hutson brother. But he&#8217;s reached new heights since the second half of this season began, scoring 15 goals and 31 points in 18 games, a 1.72 per-game clip.
Always open and ready to fire instantly, Hutson is a goalscorer. What seperates him from other NCAA goalscorers is how he&#8217;s constantly moving to become the perfect option and seems to read the play far in advance. In particular, he seems to always know Cole Hutson&#8217;s next move — the two have tremendous synergy.
Though a shooter first, Hutson is becoming increasingly dynamic at this level. He prefers the give-and-go, quick-possession game, but he shows deception, pace and creativity doing it.
Returning to the NCAA to continue his development as a play-driver, as well as improving his physical game, might be the best call. But in terms of upside, there aren&#8217;t many on this list that compare.</blockquote>
Hutson will be the second college free agent signing for the Oilers this spring after signing Ohio State defenceman <a href="https://oilersnation.com/news/edmonton-oilers-sign-defenceman-damien-carfagna-to-two-year-entry-level-contract">Damian Carfagna</a> to a two-year, entry-level contract in late March. The team has also signed a pair of European free agents, too, in forwards <a href="https://oilersnation.com/2025/04/02/oilers-sign-german-forward-josh-samanski-entry-level-contract/">Josh Samanski</a> and <a href="https://oilersnation.com/2025/04/02/edmonton-oilers-sign-david-tomasek-one-year-contract/">David Tomasek</a> as the team looks to restock their prospect shelves.
