tier3B defenseman leading the league 2nd in pts lol.
Dom Luszczyszyn listed hughes as a tier 3 B dman in the league. He had him slightly higher, but dropped him down because he talked to a scout that said “He’s good, I don’t know how good he is. I really don’t.”
All in all, he’s a talented player, but not yet a complete one — and his play without the puck is an issue for both analysts and scouts. “He has not gotten better or worse for me in years,” one analyst said. “He’s just been the exact same dude plugging along.”
proves most analysts and scouts didn't watch the Canucks, i dont blame em cuz they stunk but if it's their job... they really should.
play without the puck? he's literally the only player in the Canucks backend the last 4+ yrs that's been solid with or without the puck haha
