jack hughes injured bad it seems..

[The Crypto Guy]

That did not look good at all.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Anyone with a Matt Rempe avatar probably has never laced up skates

As for the thread, beyond comical anyone thinks he's injury prone based on a play that's injuring 95% of the league's players

The OPs take was ass, going into the boards at that speed with no time to brace or redirect your impact is going to
f*** up most people.

But if a guy keeps on getting hurt (on similar plays mind you) that makes them…. Prone to injury.

Hughes being injury prone isn’t a new thing. This is a feature, not a bug.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Sucks to see. Always hate seeing the leagues best players injured on dumb plays like that.

Devils are 3rd in the division with 20 games left to play and a big 4 point lead on the wildcard team. Curious to see how the team responds to his season being over if they fight and make the playoffs or if they go on a big losing streak and give up

 

[Cats2TheCup]

Sullivan had him at wing when he's a center, please learn the sport lol

Look up who Sergei Fedorov is before you cry about a forward playing forward.

 

[LaffyTaffy13]

So, never played hockey?

I separated my shoulder and was off the ice for 5 months on a surprisingly similar not that bad, nonchalant impact with the boards.

Are you small? heavier guys with more muscle mass get up from these we see regularly

 

[FlyguyOX]

What is Keefe barking about? Clearly just a freak accidental play

 

[nofehr]

Absolutely mind boggling that Wes Mccauley is allowed to ref any of Keefe's games.

 

[Fatass]

When a player keeps getting injured over and over again, I wouldn't call them freak injuries.
Could have protected himself better as he was falling.

Imo once falling it’s hard to protect himself at that speed. I’d like him to stop net front. But then he gets hit by a player instead of crashing into the end wall.

Absolutely mind boggling that Wes Mccauley is allowed to ref any of Keefe's games.

Why?

 

[MXD]

Why?

McAuley is David Frost' brother in law.

McAuley is David Frost' brother in law.

Who?

Maybe he's so wealthy, he paid others to lace his skates for him.

 

[MXD]

Who?

The guy to whom belongs the head on which Mike Danton put a bounty on.

Keefe was a teammate of Danton.

Frost was also tried for sexual misconduct towards Danton, amongst others.

Keefe testified for the Crown in that case.

Very few players are Sergei Fedorov.

Ya, more mass colliding with the boards leads to better results. This is science, I’m definitely not just trying to be Brochad Getbig on the internet here.

 

[BagHead]

It looks to me like Hughes reached his skate out to redirect the puck while Hanifin stuck his skate out to block the puck or redirect it himself, and they tapped skates. At the same time, Hughes was being pressured from behind by stick lifts from Eichel. I think he just catches his leg on Eichel and skate on Hanifin and loses balance. There was no hit, no intent to injure. Just bad luck and timing.

This sucks. I hope Hughes comes back soon and without lasting effects. I feel for him.

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Eichel is a f***ing and Wes McCauley is the worst ref in the league.

You can't be serious. Eichel did nothing wrong on that play.

Same shoulder, same type of injury, probably same long-term diagnosis. And Vegas is low-key dirty and has been since they debuted in the league with Bettman’s thumb fully on the scale for them, so I’m not giving Jackass Eichel the benefit of the doubt.

Devils won’t make the playoffs now, but what else is new?

There is literally nothing dirty about this. Not remotely.

 

[CanesUltimate11]

Eichel just bringing that touch love to toughen Hughes up before the Olympics next year

But seriously, hopefully it's something minor for Hughes.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Not good if he needs surgery again on the same shoulder.

 

[macbowes]

Looks like Hughes tried to get a skate on the puck, as he couldn't get his stick on it due to being tied up but Eichel. Would normally be fine, but the tight check of Eichel made it so Hughes couldn't get his feet back under him properly, and then he ended up going into the boards on all fours. I don't think there was any penalty on the play, it was just unfortunate. Good players go to the net, and sometimes it's dangerous. Just the way it goes. Hughes is small for the NHL, which makes him particularly vulnerable in falls towards the boards.

Hopefully he's not injured too badly, he's really fun to watch. Part of what makes him so good is his willingness to go to the net.

Sports radio on the Wet Coast saying Luke Hughes was so upset with how serious the Jack Hughes injury was the reporters had to clear the locker room. So it sounds like it’s really bad.

Yeah, as much as I hate the Devils I do enjoy watching Hughes play. He's a lot of fun to watch. Hopefully he's OK.

Josh Norris 2.0 then

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

I don't watch him much but at 4 nations it was clear he was extremely outclassed physically in every game.

 

[tfwnogf]

sucks. He has elite skill but physically not built for the nhl.

 

[Washed Up 29YearOld]

Jack on Jack crime.

Hope the kid is ok

I guess you can call it a Jack Off
