He was good with Tanev.    :towel:

 

Yes , he needs to have a defensive minded partner who's job is to back him up. However this is a team problem right now and no 170 lb D man is going to win physical battles against 200lb forwards. Hughes game is mobility and as long as the game is fluid he is great defensively and offensively. Right now they are turning over the puck and getting hemmed into their own zone. Board battles are not Hughes strengths and never will.

This is a team problem.

100% agree

Be impressed appleboy. Be impressed. 

owen power or luke hughes on d for van would be huge win i can handle a tank. Trade for picks or young  prospects for edler pearson benn myers gaudette sutter beagle roussel. retain half cap on edler pearson so teams like leafs can fit them in under cap. also grab vets on expiring contracts as cap dumps for picks. In off season draft  decent and maybe trade some of picks as a way to get rid of   eriksson

Been waiting all season to put my Eriksson jersey on.

My grandparents bought me a Mark Messier jersey, complete with the 'C'.....I still have it and I think I will wear it to the next game I attend just to hear the chirps.

Does 23 have a no trade?

It's almost like Hughes benefited from playing with Tanev last year and there is noone on D this year that has been able to play the role as well as Tanev did.

Valid point, Schmidt so far haven't had the impact we hoped for and yes, it's obvious QH misses Tanev. That said, it's also obvious QH:s puck handling and skating is on a lower level compared to last season, regardless of partner.
