There are a lot of things to define the freshly drafted Jack Hughes. The New Jersey Devils haven’t had a big time drafted forward since Patrik Elias, who is the all-time leading franchise scorer. One of the best parts of Jack Hughes game is his zone entries. Patrik Elias could clear the opposing blue line with really quickly. On the other hand, no offense to Patrik Elias, but Hughes absolutely wins the foot race.
The kid is so smart and so good that it wouldn’t be surprising if Hughes gets free press from American telecom companies.
