Quinton Hughes 2017 IIHF U18 Highlights 

More like he’ll go to the red wings !

He’s getting drafted before he reaches the Canucks pick. He’s almost locked going to Detroit

Hes a nuck baby

Future Flume “almost”

if you watch and know hockey you'll notice his stride reminds you of someone in the NHL. A big someone. Its his father. tell me who you think it is.

Basi he’s ours

Hughes, Pettersson, Boeser

The Mexicano Show that’s a killer for sure. I seriously thought the wings would take Hughes at the time i made this comment but wow the Canucks really got a very good dman. They really have a solid group of young prospects, it’s only a matter of time when they start compete again...Thatcher Demko is also the real deal

You guys got Zadina and Veleno in the first round, couple steals

The Mexicano Show Zadina gonna get 70 goals this year 12 assists

Hockey Prospects Center fuck you mean "potentially". He is going top 10

Nothing is guaranteed this early, but yes, he is projected TOP10 at the moment.

Hockey Prospects Center he will go top 10

Likely

Hockey Prospects Center will.

Danny Irish Greene the hockey Gods were generous in Dallas.

@XBOXRULES there is no god but their are hockey God's

Angelo Da Conceicao what are you talking about. Dahlin is significantly better, come on.

@@nucksforcup1115 Well safe to say Q is having a better rookie year than Rasmus did. He has been so good on both ends of the rink and has made life easy for Tanev. No more seeing Tanev stuck hemmed in his zone and having to sacrifice his body 20 times a game. 21 Points in 23 games while already breaking up records while not even starting on the 1st unit till game 8. I said it before the draft, 5 years from the draft, he would go 1st in a redraft. Kid is a true #1 elite pmd that has the highest ceiling of any D drafted in years.

brett hughes 21 points in 25 games, bud. Quinn Hughes is an amazing defenseman. You probably won’t find a bigger fan. But that doesn’t mean I’m not a realistic fan at the same time. Rasmus Dahlin is generational. He did all of this at age 18 until the very end of his rookie season (he turned 19 in April of 2018-19). Hughes has been 20 since October. That’s SIGNIFICANT. And with that in mind, Dahlin put up the second best statistical season EVER by a defenseman at the age of 18 behind only Phil Housley (ahead of Bobby Orr btw). He’s taken a slight step back in his overall game perhaps, but not point-production wise. He’s on pace for 55 after 44 last season. Obviously Hughes is having the better year, with a near 70-point pace, that’s absolutely incredible. And at the end of the day, Hughes MIGHT be the better offensive defenseman. But even if that’s true, Rasmus Dahlin’s overall game is something else. You look at his ability to take over a game and it’s just absolutely something special. I believe Hughes is a special talent too, just not to that degree. The 2018 draft wasn’t one like 2017 (Hischier and Patrick to this point being overthrown by Pettersson, Makar and Heiskanen) where the best player of the class was up for grabs. Dahlin’s was more of a McDavid, Matthews, Crosby type of draft. He will 99% be the best player to emerge from it. And hey, that’s totally fine. If Quinn is able to be the best defenseman taken aside from a generational one, I’m not sure anyone’s complaining. Again, Hughes has been fantastic, this is just my opinion and I’m so glad we have him. (Apologies for the novel, just am very interested in elite young D in the game anyways)
