Hughes scored a goal and fired five shots on net in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Vancouver. While Sunday's contest was circled on the calendar to be a showdown between Luke and his brother Quinn Hughes before the latter was traded to Minnesota two days prior, Luke ensured that a Hughes brother found the scoresheet with his goal in the second period. He is up to three goals, 18 points, 77 shots on net and 26 blocked shots through 33 games this season. Despite New Jersey's recent struggles, the 22-year-old blueliner has played well offensively with four points and 15 shots on goal in his last five games. The third-year defenseman was also given the keys to New Jersey's power play, even with Dougie Hamilton healthy. Hughes is on track to reach the 40-point mark for the third consecutive year, and his solid category coverage, to go along with his above-average offensive play from the blue line, gives him good value in most fantasy formats.

Hughes had a goal and an assist in an 8-4 loss to Tampa Bay on Thursday. Hughes took a pass, spun away from a Tampa Bay defender and fired a quick snap shot past Jonas Johansson. He has three points (one goal, two assists) in his last three games after going five games without a point. The goal was Hughes' first in 13 games. He has 17 points (two goals, 15 assists) in 31 games this season. His 2.9 shooting percentage is plenty unlucky -- his career average is 5.8. So, watch for a few more goals off Hughes' stick.

Hughes had an assist and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Blues. Hughes picked up a secondary helper on Nico Hischier's power-play tally midway through the second period. With the apple, Hughes raised his totals to 13 assists, 14 points, 48 shots on goal and 21 blocks through 23 games this season. He also extended his point streak to three games, and he has seven points in his last eight contests. The 22-year-old blueliner has taken on a sizable amount of extra ice time this season and is tracking for a career year. While Dougie Hamilton currently holds a spot on the team's top power-play unit, Hughes could end up back in that role by the end of the season if he continues to produce. Hughes might challenge 50 points for the first time in his NHL career in 2025-26.

Hughes recorded an even-strength goal and a power-play assist in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Capitals. Hughes extended his point streak to three games, and he also found the back of the net for the first time in 2025-26. The 22-year-old blueliner is up to 11 points on the season.

Hughes had two assists Saturday in a 5-3 win over Tampa Bay. The third NHL Hughes could be the best of the lot, at least according to his older brothers Quinn Hughes and Jack Hughes. The youngest Hughes plays with the poise of a 30-year-old, and he already has four assists in two games. Hughes commands the ice and will shatter his current 47-point career mark this season. Put it on the board.
