No Luke.

The Gretzky's hold the record by two brothers. Those are the rules.
This has already been pointed out, in fact my post on was about it being more fair to put them against the Sutter brothers seeing as there are 3 Hughes brothers.
I think it's an interesting idea for sure, but the OP really missed the mark on the question. The fact that the Gretzky brothers aren't even the highest scoring brother combo was completely ignored by the OP.

If any 2 can beat the Gretzky brothers that's amazing but for it to truly count they'd have to beat the Sutter's

lets see the math right now


Jack Hughes--23

right now has 327 in 345 games or 0.947 pt per games-- lets ignore the fact he has mist 20+ games a year 4 times in his career because everyone always says he will stay healthy for the rest of his career

.947*82 = 77.27
lets say he plays 13 more years*77.27=1010+327(current total) = 1137

Luke Hughes--21 and lets say he player 15 year
66pts in 114 games= .579*82=48pts per year*15=720+66=786

Q,Hughes 25 and lets say he plays till 36 so 11 more years
375/399=.94 pts per game*82=77pts a year *11 =848+375=1223

JH 1137
LH 786
QH 1223

3232 pts vs Gretzky's 2861

If they all stay healthy, stay productive and play till they each 35/36? It is within reason

sedin brothers really had the best chance at it. i doubt the 3 hughes match the 2 sedin tho. 3rd hughes is like the 4th staal.

Last year the Hughes brothers scored 214 total points. They fell one short of the career high by the Gretzky brothers in 1985-86.

They are currently on pace for 238. Can they do it this year?

I generally hate those threads because they're always so unreleastic...

In this case... it is interesting to say the least.

If Jack ends with 1,500+ points... and that's a big if, maybe?

For reference, Patrick Kane JUST broke 1300 points.

Considering Luke currently has 66 career NHL points at 21 years old and Jared had zero NHL points, I think Luke might be a little better than Jared Staal
