Quoting: NHLfan10506
It is not 1998. US can hang with Canada in skill game.
He is small, but he never avoids the dirty areas.
I actually wish he did avoid...but turns out ok. No one can ever get a clean hit on him.
Jack Hughes is a top-6 skilled person on any team.
He has elite skating, skill, vision.
He is probably today, as a 19-year old, a top-5 player in NHL with puck on his stick.
Many teams have wings take face-offs.
Taking the draw doesn't mean you are a center.
And being a center doesn't mean you take draws.
Landeskog takes as many draws as MacKinnon.
Don't overthink it.
Besides, they list Wheeler as center between Debrincat and Tkachuk (none are centers or take draws)
No one would ask him to.
He is neither a winger or bottom-6 player.
Your list: Rust, Kreider, Trocheck. Batherson. Nelson, Saad
They are all wingers except for Trocheck and Nelson.
Neither of which can provide what Hughes can.
And Batherson plays for Canada.
But keep up the hUgHes iS a bUsT stuff.
We need the humor.
I stopped at US can keep up in a skill game at canada. I just can't respect the opinion of people who clearly are delusional.
Here is a clue, they can't. not on the high end, not on the depth.
It's not even close. It's not even an argument. You are living in fantasy land with that.
Which doesn't come to a surprise to anyone when you think Hughes is a top 5 player in the NHL. Because he's clearly not.
29 points and 11 goals does not say top 5 player in the NHL. It's not even close.
McDavid, Draisaitl, Matthews, MacKinnon, Kane, Hell take your pick, there are so many better players in the league than Hughes. To actually believe he's a top 5 player is laughable.
He's not even a top 6 player on this team.
You are just angry everyone doesn't think Hughes is the better than McDavid.
Well he isn't.
He has no business on this team. Period.
Anyone not wearing blinders knows that.
