Definitely would take Hughes.
Gotta love the upside of the top-5 of this draft, but you can’t pass on a more proven phenomenal young talent, in Hughes.
Yup. You know the floor with Hughes is a Letang type #1D. If you surround him with the right kind of talent, he can be the best d-man on a Cup winning team. However, I don't think Hughes will ever be the best player at any position on a Cup team. Byfield and Stutzle could be that, but they could also be 2nd liners. Hughes is part of the puzzle to making a Cup team. Take the sure thing.
