New Jersey Devils defenseman Luke Hughes (shoulder) will jump into the lineup for his season debut on Thursday versus Detroit. Hughes underwent shoulder surgery in September, which has kept him out for the first nine games of the season. The 21-year-old had a good rookie campaign in 2023-24 with 47 points (nine goals, 38 assists) in 82 games. Hughes should see top-four minutes and a healthy amount of power-play time. He notched 25 points (four goals, 21 assists) with the man advantage last term, ranking third on the team in power-play points.

Luke Hughes Remains 5-7 Weeks Away From Returning
New Jersey Devils defenseman Luke Hughes (shoulder) has yet to resume skating and remains 5-7 weeks away from being able to return to action. Hughes suffered a shoulder injury in mid-September and is set to miss the first month of the regular season. Hughes had a highly productive debut campaign in 2023-24 with 47 points (nine goals, 38 assists) in 82 games. 25 points (four goals, 21 assists) came on the power play for Hughes. Hughes' absence could give rookie Seamus Casey a spot on the second power-play unit to start the year, with Dougie Hamilton set to roll with the first unit.

Luke Hughes Out 6-8 Weeks
New Jersey Devils defenseman Luke Hughes (shoulder) has been ruled out for 6-8 weeks. Hughes is recovering from a shoulder injury he suffered earlier in the month. Luckily, Hughes has escaped surgery, but he will miss time at the start of the 2024-25 regular season. Once he's back in the lineup, Hughes will try to produce a strong sophomore year after being among the top scoring rookies last term. Hughes registered 47 points (nine goals, 38 assists) in 82 outings, finishing behind only Chicago's Connor Bedard (61) in scoring among first-year players. The 21-year-old posted the third-most power-play points on the team (25), so the Devil could struggle with the man advantage early in the new campaign.

Luke Hughes To Play For USA At World Championships
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.

Luke Hughes Racks Up Three Power-Play Assists
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.

Luke Hughes Bags A Power-Play Goal Wednesday

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.

Luke Hughes Collects Two Assists In Win Over Penguins
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.

Luke Hughes Posts Two Assists In Friday's Win
New Jersey Devils defenseman Luke Hughes contributed two assists as the team defeated Buffalo 5-4 on Friday. His second helper was a power-play assist in the third period to his brother Jack. The headlines have been all about Jack Hughes early in the campaign in New Jersey, but the younger brother has also enjoyed a good start, notching four points (one goal, three assists) in seven games. He's logging time on the third defensive pairing but has nailed down a spot on the first power-play unit, and Hughes led the team with 6:34 of power-play time Friday.
