Everyone Quinn Hughes will get pp1 time eventually.

 

our first unit has put a lot of work and time in to practice together; and when it didn’t have edler it sucked! 

 

its good for hughes to be on the second unit right now, cause frankly it has sucked. And look at that he is breathing life into it.

 

its also second unit pkers and less time so good for Hughes to get his feet wet.

 

he will get pp1 time soon enough!!

That Pearson trade is looking so good right now. Just getting Gudbranson and his salary out of here was a win, but replacing it with a still young-ish player that can play with Bo, but up solid numbers and help anchor the 2nd unit powerplay? If Pearson can keep it up going forward, this might end up being Benning's best trade so far.

 

And yup, Hughes is awesome. He's doing really well on the second unit, but I really want to see him on the first unit at some point.

It’s sucked with Edler when he came back. I’d argue our first unit missed Baer more than it ever missed Edler. I swear that guy is legally blind in his left eye, never feeds Boeser.

Here's hoping Pearson is back next season 

Pearson's signed at 3.75M for 2 more seasons per capfriendly, so he should be!

He's been a solid pickup, and it's really great to see Bo have a consistent and compatible winger beside him night after night!

That’s huge when it comes to the pressure felt by the top PP unit. They don’t have to force the play and not worry that they have to score. 

And the defending team will have their hands full facing dangerous units with different formation. Being predictable to defend kills the PP.

So when will the coaching staff realize that QH43 just makes the powerplay lethal and move him to the PP1 unit?

How many PP points before Hughes makes his way onto the #1 PP?

the sad thing in all over this is hughes is not making our power play look "good" and head office will think newell brown is competent in his job...

 

yet we see hughes do 20 foot drop passes to fowards skating as slow as possible.... so painful to watch

He’s almost ppg now though haha 

 

hard to imagine he wont be a calder favorite start of next season

 

crazy three years in a row we will have / had 3 calder candidates /winners 

 

 

hughes could have easily had an assist on a slick pass to Boeser earlier in period, I just love the way hughes passes the puck

most of our pp time is wasted just trying to set up.  they may be working hard but the results just arent there.
