The Hughes turnover meter is going to go on the fritz soon, too many to keep up
 
Hughes with a shakey pass again..
Getting worried the kid wont learn......
Jack is 20 and with less than 2 full seasons under his belt. Lots of time to learn. We’ve seen it with young offensively minded players before. But he’s doing too much right now.

You at least get the glimpses of offense. Hughes’s glimpses last the first two weeks of every season and that’s it
 
We're kind of getting to MacLean territory. He was fired on December 23rd (I think? It was the morning of the last game before Christmas) and he didn't have Parise at all after Halloween, Brodeur was in and out of injury in November and December while he was here, he had really bad defensemen filling in, he had a lot of other injuries. Rolston was another guy out for a while. Volchenkov was injured in the second game of the season and unavailable for a while. I know these players weren't any good anymore, but they were supposed to be key pieces coming into that season. At least Volchenkov was. Rolston was at least expected to be a secondary guy and not waiver fodder like he wound up being right after the MacLean firing. He had to ice short handed rosters because of the cap.

I'm not saying MacLean didn't deserve it, but it's not like he didn't have all these excuses like Ruff can currently use.

people are upset because of the contract he was given before he “earned it” Simple as that.

He needs to be better though and also needs some damn wingers who can actually put the puck in the net

*havent watched the last 2-3 games so idk the chances he’s generated etc*

He’s gotta be better though and reach his potential or NJ isn’t going anywhere…same with Nico Hischier
