New Jersey Devils defenseman Luke Hughes will head to Czechia to play for Team USA at the upcoming World Hockey Championship. The 20-year-old enjoyed a big-time rookie season from the blueline, registering nine goals and 47 points on 135 shots while skating in all 82 regular-season games. Unfortunately, the Devils didn't get much in terms of goaltending and ended up finishing 10 points back of the Washington Capitals for the second and final Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference. Luke's brother and teammate, Jack, underwent season-ending shoulder surgery but should be good to go for training camp next season.
New Jersey Devils defenseman Luke Hughes had it going on with the man advantage all night against Winnipeg on Thursday, finishing a 4-1 victory with three power-play assists. Jack Hughes scored a pair of goals, and Nico Hischier also benefited from Hughes' fantastic job on the power play. He's the first rookie defenseman to tally three-plus power-play assists in a single game since his brother Quinn Hughes in 2019. Throughout the season, Hughes has done most of his damage on the power play, with only 17 of his 38 points coming during even-strength play. He's tied with Minnesota's Brock Faber for the second-most points among first-year players.
New Jersey Devils defenseman Luke Hughes scored a power-play goal in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Canadiens. The talented rearguard sparked a comeback from a two-goal deficit in the third period, but the Devils were still left empty-handed. It's Hughes' first goal since he finished last month with a three-game goal streak. He boasts eight goals in total for the season, which puts Hughes among the top defensemen in the league. The 20-year-old has also collected 16 assists in 42 games during his rookie campaign.
New Jersey Devils defenseman Luke Hughes put in an impressive performance against the Penguins on Thursday, recording two assists and a plus-three rating in a 5-2 road win. Both of his helpers came in the third frame when the Devils turned a tie game into a comfortable victory. Hughes reached 10 points for the campaign with Thursday's effort. His scoring pace has dropped lately, but he's still having a good rookie campaign, and Hughes' productivity is bound to improve again once the Devils have Nico Hischier (upper body) and Jack Hughes (shoulder) back in the lineup.
