Fans of the New Jersey Devils were happy yesterday, as future superstar Jack Hughes signed an eight-year contract extension worth $8 million annually. This comes just a couple of months after defender Quinn Hughes re-signed with the Vancouver Canucks for six years at $7.85 million annually. Looks like Jack had to one-up his older brother.
“I’m so excited to sign this deal for myself and for my family,” Hughes told the media on Tuesday. “I love being in New Jersey and I love playing in New Jersey. I wouldn’t want to play anywhere else, and we are really building something special.
