[I am toxic]

No doubt Hugh’s is quite the talent and both these guys are going head to head for the next 15 years. Exiting times ahead

Get out of here!

Brett Hedican, NBC Sports California and Broadcaster for Sharks Game


"Quinn Hughes is generational"

Hedican during the 2nd intermession of the Sharks and Canucks game last night

This is heavy praise coming from a 2x olympian and stanley cup champ.

Sounds like its not just Canuck fans that are starting to pump the tire of Hughes.

Eastern Road trip coming up will open some eyes, same did for the All-Star festivities.

Brett Hedican was a two time Olympian?That's more surprising than Makar and Hughes both hitting 70 points as rookies.

He sure was. One of the smoothest skater in his era. Ironically, he met his wife at the Olympics, figure skater, Kristi Yamaguchi

That’s nuts. If Q Hughes is generational, that must mean Makar is the best defenseman of all time already.

What a time to be a hockey fan.

 

[Satire]

Makar has my vote, though I give a solid "nod" to Hughes.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

makar is easily better than hughes, who knows in the future but idk how thats even a close conversation this season

Realistically, 90% of people know this.

I created a drinking game for the word "insecurity" being typed in this thread. Going to hospital to get stomach pumped.

Are you still alive ? considering the number of times "insecurity" have been said here since you posted this. I'm pretty sure I would've died already from alcohol poisoning.

I'm good. Local hospital let me rent the pump!

 

[Canucks LB]

Quinn hughes man
Another goal and assist already.
Still half a game to go

Quinn just passed him in points, at least temporarily. Up to 7 goals. Yes, with 8 less games. But this is a lot closer then you seem to think.

Miller’s goal was unassisted.

One goal today, no assist.

 

[nucksflailtogether]

Miller’s goal was unassisted.

They took away his assist

 

[Mighty Makar]

They took away his assist

Yeah, I noticed that on TSN.

 

[Canucks LB]

They literally took his assistant away seconds ago, makes no sense he literally did everything on that goal

 

[Mighty Makar]

I didn’t see the goal.

Just saw the goal. Agreed he and Tanev did everything. I guess an Isles player touched the puck than Miller scored so they make it unassisted. If he did score after hitting the post they would’ve had their assists right?

Quinn most certainly does not have less games played than Makar

Obviously a typo. You can tell with the rest of the post.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

How is it an obvious type? He's trying to suggest it's actually close. It's not.


Quinn has 25% more games played than Cale and he only just tied him in points

 

[BiggBird]

Quinn is better, change my mind.

“Only”

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

“Only”

Yes? Are you having trouble what the term "only" means?

 

[Raistlin]

With at least 3 ev goals in his last four games, I no longer think Makar has the Calder locked down. Maybe his skating is what will provide him his second wind. Quinn seems to be making his run.

 

[Ainec]

I'd rather have Quinn
