Vanilla as they come. Does not do anything really well. Frankly, not a great trade.

Nope!
Him and Dach.
Now we are having an idea why they were traded.

Bad version of Oleg Petrov

Yup im that old

Hey, at least Hughes did his former firm a favour and got them a cool 10% of Newhook's c. 11.6m contract. We're nothing more than animals if we don't make our friends rich, eh?

 

[HuGort]

Hughes should lose Colorado phone number. Traded us 2 dudes in Newhook and Barron. Costs us 2 first round picks. Ugh

I think long term he could form a great offensive 3rd line with Beck and maybe Roy.

You must hate Beck.

You must hate Beck.

Suzuki and CC haven’t looked better this season since Newhook joined their line.

He’s a solid depth scorer. Unfortunately the team has imploded and him along with it. He’s been okay but he’s never going to be a guy to carry a line.

 

[Demigod]

Best case scenario he turn out to be a Paul Byron - lite.

He has the speed. Need to work on his defensive play and he could be a good 3rd line winger.

Or we just trade him in 2-3 years if in cannot fit this role. At this point there is no way he play in the top 6. If he's there it means we failed the rebuild.

Still think he can find a way to be an asset if he accept to be bottom 6 and put the work to be effective at this position.

Better than Dach at least. He’s worth the late first at the bare min
