That’s some really elite company. I’d say Hughes is the player on this team that has the best chance of the current core to make the HOF.

Congrats Hughes, pretty impressive. Between him and Makar, there's been some re-writing at (or near) the top of the NHL record book. Pretty special to see these 2 phenoms tearing up the league.
If Hughes ever develop an average point shot, he can realistically be a consistent point per game player.

he almost has as many assists already as horvat is on pace for over the full 82
Counterpoint: Horvat had more goals last night than Hughes is on pace for over the full 82.

Another point. 21 in 18 games. Just a point producing machine. Incredible player.

TNT panel was asked who the best defensman under 24 out of
Heiskanen
Seider
Sanderson
Dhalin
Hughes
Not 1 picked Hughes. Just some context that outside of this city he’s not as good as people here think.

Feels good having a player where the dunks on him are "look how no one even picked him as the best player in his age group, he's only top 5"

and everytime he does something, some maniac avs fan goes "yeah but let's see him win a norris trophy and conn smythe in the same year"
for those of us who grew up with jyrki lumme and gerald diduck, it's refreshing that that's the bar

Nobody thinks he's actually the best.
He's just in very good company on that list. Not number one, but top 5-10? You can't be mad at that.

Outside of Sanderson who’s tbd, you’d have to be a true homer to pick Hughes ahead of any of those other guys

How good is Hughes, when the best our friendly neighbourhood JC can come up with is "Well he is not the best of a bunch of amazing players!"

This didn’t age well if you watched the game tonight. Kid defends as much as a wet fart.
