Interesting observation: HFboards seems to think Hughes was elite and by far the best player tonight. CDC seems to have very mixed opinions about Hughes tonight.
If I remember correctly, Hughes and Tanev were at the end of a shift so maybe that contributed to the seeming lack of final effort. But didn't McDavid shoot on Tanev's side?
Started slow, finished strong. Could just see him growing in confidence as the game went on. Can see him start to take over games once he starts to feel more comfortable.
