Edmonton Oilers prospect forward Quinn Hutson, arguably the top prospect forward in the system, has been chosen to take part in the 2026 AHL All-Star Classic, representing the Pacific All-Star Team.
One of the more intriguing prospects in the system for the Edmonton Oilers is forward Quinn Hutson, who they just re-signed to a two year contract extension with an AAV (average annual value) of $875,000.
Thanks to his strong year with the American Hockey League affiliate Bakersfield Condors, Hutson is being recognized by having been named as a participant in the AHL All-Star Classic, and he'll represent the Pacific All-Star Team.

So far this year with the Condors, Hutson has 38 points (23G, 15A) in 30 games played. He's the top scoring forward on the Condors.
Hutson, who was never drafted into the NHL, signed an entry level contract with the Oilers in April of 2025 and would later make his NHL debut that same day, a 5-0 loss against the divisional foe Los Angeles Kings.
Before this, he played two years with the USHL's Muskegon Lumberjacks as well as three years with Boston University.
In the four games he's played this year in the NHL in an Oilers sweater, Hutson has a goal with no assists.
Jets Prospect Thomas Milic Will Also Take Part In The AHL All-Star Classic
Additionally, Winnipeg Jets goaltender prospect Thomas Milic has also been chosen to take part.
Taken with the 151st overall pick by the Jets in the 2023 NHL Entry Draft, he's mostly played for their AHL affiliate Manitoba Moose but has also played three games at the NHL level this year.
With Manitoba so far this year, he's gone 8-4-2 with a .902 SV%.
