Value of: How interested would New Jersey be in Quinn Hughes

[Scorcho]

Wasn't a Canuck fan that made that proposal.

Not sure where you get your conclusion from.

Personally, I would consider it, but ultimately I'd just keep Quinn. He's shown in the playoffs that he can play strong D. Just this season our team D has been a gong show, and he's struggled in his own end. Been phenomenal in transition and offensively though. The feeling I get watching him is though that he's not done growing. We're seeing just the tip of the iceberg with him.

I really like Hischier and Smith, so I completely understand why most Devils fan hate that proposal.

no sane devils fan would make a proposal that lopsided so i assumed it was a nucks fan.

maybe bertuzzipunch isn't the best representation of your fan base lol

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

Yeah and you can keep thinking that your team has the assets for a superstar 20 yr old defenseman lmao

we already have one of our own, thanks for your consideration though

Hughes is their top defender. Adding to Petterson, Horvat, and Boesser would surely be nice, but Vancouver isn’t exactly flush with great d-men...presently or in the system. I think it’d cost a king’s ransom to get Q out of Vancouver.

 

[CutOnDime97]

Might as well trade whatever assets they have left for Luke as well

 

[Spirits]

Vancouver would have to get a piece back that can play defense so they upgrade from Hughes to an NHL caliber defender.

And Quinn is still better by miles defensively than every single devils defenseman and thats ontop of getting minimum 60-70 points a season.

Please tell me I'm not the only one to appreciate a poster with a Gandolfini avatar trashing New Jersey.

 

[Bizzare]

Quinn is walking in 3 years anyway so it's a moot point

Where is he walking? Around the sea wall?

 

[Fulham]

Boeser Gaudette and a first for J Hughes

please look at a HERO chart to see just how "good" quinn is defensively...yikes.


he's like -16 this year dude

 

[HellOnIce]

It's more likely he signs a short term deal and walks than gets traded. If the other brother gets drafted by the Devils, watch out.

 

[Guttersniped]

If NJ can draft Luke, poor Vancouver fans may see Quinn to NJ speculation for years

Jesus, do all of you work with your sibling or something? Is this a thing?

And before anyone throws “Rob Niedermayer” at me, Lamoriello took Scott Niedermayer, fresh off his Norris trophy winning season, to an arbitration hearing in 2004 after he ask for a 5 year/9m deal. (It was the dumbest thing Lou ever did.)

Niedermayer got a one year/7m deal from arbitration that was void by the lockout. Lou offered him a 5 year/7.8m deal, ironically because the 25% rollback in the new CBA would have reduces the original deal Niedermayer ask for a year earlier to a 4 year/6.75m deal.

What was the deal Scott Niedermayer took from the Duck? It was 4 year/6.75m.

So, I would argue 1) it really wasn’t about his brother 2) don’t take to a salary arbitration hearing if you actually want to keep long term.

A lot of people do work with their siblings, it’s also a little bit different when it comes to Hockey. They’ve been playing together since before they were in school.

That being said they’re all fantastic players and don’t need to play on the same team. If they choose to, they can make that happen in free agency. By time that rolls around though they’ll have played/lived apart from each other that it’s likely not as enticing as it would be coming out of the draft.

chances are better to see the Hughes from NJ to VAN... but for the sake of this thread

To NJ:
Q. Hughes

To VAN:
T. Smith
A. Holtz / 2022-1st (unprotected)
2021-2nd

 

[Canucks LB]

This is honestly not a shot whatsoever, but there’s literally not one player on the New Jersey Devils I would take over quinn hughes

 

[Canucks LB]

Boeser Gaudette and a first for J Hughes

A top 10 1st and a 1st line sniper having a great year for A struggling Jack?

come on man

 

[HugeInTheShire]

These threads are so pointless, it just becomes a pissing match with everyone overvaluing their own players while undervaluing the other teams assets.. The Devils absolutely have enough to acquire Quinn and the Canucks have enough to acquire Jack, neither team would be willing to pay the price though, so move on
