Prospect Info: Luke Hughes - part III

[jkrdevil]

The Michigan goalie really wants to see Luke in the Devils lineup on Saturday.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

get that pen and paper ready Fitzy

 

[Bcap88]

Portillo looking like Blackwood lol

 

[Emperoreddy]

Would you play him Saturday? Or let him get a couple skates in and wait until Tuesday?

 

[Devs3cups]

Luke Hughes, YOU ARE a New Jersey Devil

 

[MasterofGrond]

Schools that can't draw the best recruits tend to be much older

yup, less established programs and ones that can't/don't offer scholarships tend to get a lot of 24 year old guys on their team

cornell's entire team had one guy younger than 20 when this year STARTED

Play him

Probably couple skates in

Tough ask to throw him in against Boston

Would be a nice measuring stick tho

I'm not putting him in against Boston right away with like a day around the team. Tuesday

 

[VoidCreature]

Luke must really be chuking it up, he doesn’t looks like himself out there

Normally he’d be extending his shifts and trying everything to do it himself

Tuesday. Bruins is a brutal one to throw a kid into.

 

[Emperoreddy]

I might launch into space if I get to see the first Hughes goal assisted by Hughes on Tuesday

 

[MasterofGrond]

So is Fantilli

absolutely insane season for an 18 year old in college hockey

even crazier that you dont need #1 overall to get him this year

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

yeah you don't play him Saturday, especially since it seems like hes really sick

get him to rest up and throw him in Tuesday night at home

It's Eichel all over again lol

 

[Emperoreddy]

He also needs a day or two to get healthy.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Or maybe Timo from Hughes and Hughes

 

[DevilsHughes86]

Wait until Tuesday minimum, get a skate or two before with the rest of the guys

 

[Devilsgrl35]

He also needs a day or two to get healthy.

If he has a stomach virus keep him away from the team. We can't have that going through the room right now.

 

[VoidCreature]

Two goals from behind the net, Portillo really blew this one for them

 

[Hisch13r]

Winning 8-1, signing Luke, and going on to beat Boston would have similar hype levels to pumping Philly 7-0 on anniversary night, trading for Timo, and beating Colorado. New Jersey Marketing Departments would be eating

 

[Emperoreddy]

Yeah I think maybe bring him to NJ and let him rest here while the team is in Boston. Meet up and get his first skates in when they get back as we have two days before Buffalo

 

[Camille the Eel]

and we do need to clinch home ice. Much as I want to see him I want us putting our best lineups out there until we do. Let’s get it done. One more regulation win.

 

[Hisch13r]

Wait until Tuesday minimum, get a skate or two before with the rest of the guys

If health is an issue I might wait longer. If it's not then Tuesday for sure.

 

[Blackjack]

I'm not putting him in against Boston right away with like a day around the team. Tuesday

Maybe if he was healthy they could go 7-11, but yeah, really pointless to do that assuming he won't be over his illness completely at that point, and he'll barely have been here a day at that point.
