With a rash of injuries to key offensive players, and multiple players called up to the NHL, the pressure was on Hudon to produce this weekend. The Alma, QC native did just that, with six points in three games versus North Division rivals.
Against Rochester he was held to just one assist, but if not for the heroics of Andrey Makarov he might have had a hat trick, or more. The following day at the Air Canada Centre, Hudon's luck changed and he notched a pair of beautiful goals in a 6-2 rout of the Marlies.
