I really want him to fall to Chicago at #3 somehow...just need Rangers to screw up with their pick. Devils and Hughes is a given.

It pains me to agree after a season of Kakko watch, but Hughes is the smart play.

Ehm, them be some fancy numbers...

So, we gonna stick Hughes with Bratt? Where we getting a winger that can steal some pucks from people? If he's good enough, will he play with Hall and Hischier instead and bump Palmieri down to these guys?

One two-way winger and one #1 D... the pieces are coming together... only need two more. The rest of the team just has to be responsible.

would love to see Devils draft him. Hughes could be great , but I feel hes over hyped.
this guy has size and skill, a thing the Devils don't have much of....Kakko please....

I'd say its easier to find size and skill anywhere, trade/FA, than finding the wizardry and quickness Hughes has.

It'd be a mistake to pass on Hughes to take Kakko, and luckily it seems like Ray knows this. You can't pass on the most electrifying player in the draft with a huge ceiling just to fill a need, Jack is our guy

I know we'll never know, but I'd love to see all the offers Shero gets for the pick. Some would be probably crazy.

Oh yeah for sure, im sure rumors leading up to and especially on draft day will be crazy. I remember all the rumors about up potentially moving the pick in 2017 and it was nerve-wracking to follow. Now to think of the hype around Hughes and his potential ceiling, especially compared to Nico/Nolan that year, its gonna be worse to follow all the way up until we actually get on stage and make the selection lol

in the past i would have assumed the rangers screw up some how but Gorton actually seems like he's doing a pretty good job over there.

Don't worry. Both teams are on the rise and we can go back to hating each other.

Comes down to one thing...Hughes has potential to sell a ton of jerseys and alot of tickets at Prudential Center...nothing is a given with any player in any sport when drafting them, but no GM would want to be the guy who passed on Hughes..this is hardly Nico-Nolan part 2!

I’d agree with you. The question is does Ray Shero and the Devil’s Scouting Department? I feel like anything could happen here. Ray has the balls to do whatever he thinks is best. That certainly could be Hughes.
