Canucks' Quinn Hughes: Another productive showing
Rotowire
Hughes recorded a goal and an assist in Monday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.
Hughes has lacked consistency on a game-to-game basis, as the 25-year-old blueliner has four games with multiple points and four in which he wasn't able to contribute to the scoresheet. Three of those multi-point efforts have come across Vancouver's last five games, however, so it seems Hughes is trending in the right direction. He should continue to have plenty of opportunities to produce as a member of the top pairing and first power-play unit.

Rotowire

Canucks' Quinn Hughes: Opens season with two helpers
Rotowire
Hughes logged two assists, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Flames.
Hughes helped out on a Brock Boeser tally just after a power play expired in the first period. In the third, a Hughes' block sprung J.T. Miller for the game-tying goal. The 24-year-old Hughes already has a multi-point effort to his name in 2024-25 after recording 27 such games en route to a career-best 92-point output last season. The Florida native is one of the most gifted blueliners in the league and should be well worth the early-round pick fantasy managers needed to acquire his services this year.

Canucks' Quinn Hughes: Deposits goal
Rotowire
Hughes scored a goal on three shots and added two PIM in Friday's 4-1 preseason win over the Oilers.
Hughes opened the scoring at 10:11 of the first period. The reigning Norris Trophy winner put up three points over two preseason appearances, not that he needs to do much to prove himself now. At 24 years old, Hughes is one of the top defensemen in the league, though even he may have trouble replicating the 17-goal, 92-point campaign he produced in 82 regular-season outings in 2023-24. Still, Hughes should be a threat for a point-per-game pace and significant power-play production even if he takes a small step back.
