Jack Hughes has made it official that he will wear #86 in the NHL with the New Jersey Devils. He wore #6 last season with the U.S. National Team Development Program and was also able to wear the number Team USA in the U18, U20, and World Championship tournaments.
The Devils have had 29 different players wear #6 during their franchise. Most for just a season or two. Tommy Albelin wore it for around 11 seasons over two different stints with the Devils. Andy Greene has worn it for the entirety of his 13 year career with the Devils, including last season.
