Prospect Info: Quinn Hughes, Pt. III

[Canucks LB]

Can you post it for the rest of us Luc? Thanks

Sorry, not going to bypass the membership for people, not fair for the writers.

They might have a trial you can use if you want.
I spent 35$ for the athletic for the year and already got my value worth. Worth every penny. Great content.

Heres a recent article just as good. Written by a big 10 guy who was actually at the games and scouting Hughes vs Wisconsin.

He talk abouts its his pros and cons. Ends it by saying calling Hughes a potential Franchise Dman.

Eye on the Future: Quinn Hughes

 

[Breakers]

Nice assist 2 mins in on the PP

8 game point streak
10 points of that span

 

[GetFocht]

1A so far with 2 periods left.

Hughes is having an exceptional season so far.

 

[Ainec]

he's having the best season so far compared to his peers:

bouchard, boqvist, dobson

 

[Ainec]

Canucks 1st PP of Pettersson Hughes Boeser Horvat will be fun to watch next year

 

[GetFocht]

Hughes style of play is very unique, I don't think any of his peers compare to him. I'm sure some of the other defence prospects will put up points by rushing the puck or QBing the PP in the NHL. However, the way Hughes handles the puck, enters the offensive zone, and skates in all directions is something none of those defenceman do. He really wants the game to flow through him.

 

[GetFocht]

Hughes with another assist. 3A so far

18 points in 14 games, producing at a 1.28 PPG. Unreal for a D+1 season, he is keeping the same pace as Makar who is a year older.

if the NCAA counted OT points, it would be 19 points in 14 games.

 

[Breakers]

bouchard, boqvist, dobson

It'd be interesting to head over to the london knights thread and see updates on Boqvist and Bouchard
Bouchard is in his 4th full year in Junior or like 200 + games, so I'd expect crazy dominance.

Next year? It could very well happen in March.

 

[Breakers]

Hughes just did "Heel Drag" between the legs on the rush, and set up a wide one net with his pass hackenberg.
It is similar to what Pettersson or every other player in the NHL does in their drags between the legs.
Except the Heel drag between the legs is 1000X more difficult. I've only seen Crosby do it before.
It's so difficult because the entire thing is on your backhand, and it so tough on your shoulder. The announcers were really laughing at the balls to attempt this.

This is the only play I know of that shows it is from Morgan frost.

He kind of reminds me of Housley when I watch him.

 

[Icebreakers]

Hughes with another assist. 2A so far

17 points in 13 games, producing at a 1.30 PPG. Unreal for a D+1 season, he is keeping the same pace as Makar who is a year older.

if the NCAA counted OT points, it would be 18 points in 13 games.

it would be 14 games. You have to count the game played if you are counting the points. But yeah.

do you have a gif of Hughes?

 

[Breakers]

do you have a gif of Hughes?

No they didn't score.
It's just one of those plays that will be forgotten because they didn't score.
It's so rare because you never see it attempted.

 

[GetFocht]

another assist for Hughes, make that 3A. 17 mins left in the 3rd period

 

[Ainec]

1. Dahlin
2. Svechnikov/Kotkaniemi/Tkachuk
5. Hughes/Hayton
7. Kravtsov/Zadina/Miller
10-12 Boqvist/Kaut/Bouchard

I agree this completely and AINEC

BTW regarding Hughes

Man I love this prospect

Not that I've watched them play much, but Boqvist looks to be having a good season in the OHL and Dobson is on a crap team. Hard to compare NCAA to the OHL; still early to say. Hughes looks like the most skilled and exciting to watch, though. We'll be spoiled watching him feed Pettersson.

 

[DownGoesMcDavid]

10 min in and Hughes has a primary Assist. Boy is on fire

 

[Josepho]

 

[Bleach Clean]

Quinn Hughes on the half wall... interesting.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Quinn Hughes on the half wall... interesting.

That was an incredible cross ice pass through defenders. Would have hit Boeser or Pettersson right in the sweet spot.

Are these games televised? TSN should pick up these games. I;m sure lots of Canuck fans would watch.
