Canucks had better pray Hughes stays healthy all season.......because without him, this isn't the blueline of even a playoff team in the West.

Captain Hughes with a nice start to the year looks like he’s primed to level up again.

He should be a finalist for the Norris again
If he maintained his play and underlying numbers through this first 11 games he should win it.
His underlying numbers and game scores are 15% higher than Kaprizov who is dominating right now

Probably my favourite Canuck ever. I didn’t think that would happen so soon after watching the Sedins

His play so far this year is even more impressive than his Norris winning season last year! Imagine if we have a healthy JTM and a 100% Petey, Hughes' counting stat could be double with all the chances he generates. This level of dominance is pretty special, he should be getting some Hart vote this year if he keeps this up.

5th overall.
Best player in Canucks history, and I don't say that lightly. It's almost hard to appreciate how good he is as a player when he's routinely tilting the ice every game and you start to consider that normal, but then you watch other teams play and none of them have a defenseman that can control the game like Hughes does.
His prime is probably the best chance of the Canucks winning a Stanley Cup for the foreseeable future. I'm just going to try to appreciate what he does on the ice every game while we still have him playing for us, because time moves fast, and it still feels like yesterday I was watching the Sedins routinely make plays that no other players were able to make.

He’s levelled up, again.
Absolute monster out there, he may get Hart consideration if he keeps this up.

He just needs to learn how to overcome the physical beatings he will take in the playoffs and remain as effective as he is in the regular season. That will be his final form.

Unfair Huggy Bear
He's somehow better than he was last year. Doesn't have as many points because Pettersson isn't doing anything, but the way he controls the ice is just insane. The other team can't do anything but hope he passes to someone else so they can turn it over.
