Rollieo Del Fuego Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Just watched the Can-US game again... It was Jack Hughes that started it and Woo had to come to the aid of whoever Jack had jumped on ...so Quinn jumped Jett.... Then Tcapuke lives up to his nickname by rifling a half dozed shots at Woo is still in Quinn's grasp ...and the linesman just watching for the first 4-5 punches... Tcupchuck should be banished from the tourney....! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you’re talking specifically about the NHL but Quinn was definitely not guaranteed a spot with the big club. Yeh and it looks like that's why Hughes went back to school. You can't gift players spots they have to earn them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is true that he wanted to go to the NHL asap but I think that he considered long and hard and decided that another year of college would serve him well both physically and mentally. This much is true. In interviews, Hughes said that he would rather be a difference maker than merely surviving in the league. He also feels a loyalty to his college team mates and thinks that they have a very real chance at a National championship. This loyalty does him credit. The reality of the genesis of the new Canucks team is that next season could very well be the worst of the rebuild. At the very least, it will not be easy. All things considered, I think that Quinn Hughes made the right decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He went back because he and his advisers thought it was best for his development. They all said so. And former high level NCAA players like Boeser agreed.
