Elliotte Friedman during the NHL Saturday Headlines Dropped Huge News that there has been at least a call made with The Vancouver Canucks GM Jim Rutherford and New Jersey Devils GM Tom Fitzgerald about what it would take to acquire Canucks Captain and star Defenseman Quinn Hughes.
Quinn Hughes has been in Trade Rumors with the Devils For a while since all 3 Brothers have talked about The desire to Play with each other on the same team. Can this happen soon or leading up to the NHL Trade Deadline?

This is good if they can squeeze sherwood and kane over too
Out of the frying pan into the fire for Quinn Hughes if that is the case. Devils are falling off a cliff currently. Maybe would shake them out of this funk.
BRO is even skipping his own intro! Hopefully, this is serious & not just all smoke
It would be great if the Devils acquire Quinn Hughes. But, I'm not getting my hopes up.
They need a Brady type player, wish they would go after that dude instead of another soft hughes brother.
Palat, Nemec and bunch of futures
You gotta think Hamilton would go back the other way along with other assets to make it worth while for VAN.
Hamilton has a modified NTC
It's better to wait until he is a free agent.
Hughes holds all the cards…and it's clear he wants out.
Hughes has no trade protection
Trade Q.Hughes to Vegas for Eichel
Hamilton needs to go, he scores more penalties than anyone!
I hope not, we already overpaid for Luke, the hughes brothers will have to much leverage on the devils. I just dont care about getting 3 brothers together, it really isn't important and there are waaaaaaaay more important things to do atm. Not to mention hamilton has a NTC, no one's talking palat without devils giving them something. Giving up Nemec for Hughes is very short sighted. So sick of hearing about Quinn, i wish his second name was anything else because we wouldn't want him if it was Smith. Pretty sure the devils have to do a trade just to get kovi back into the team.
If he's traded to new Jersey he won't be the same, he'll just be average,not the way he is with Vancouver
Mercer, Nemec and two firsts.
Otherwise F off.
Get ready to be fleeced. Rutherford will demand every high prospect and young player on our roster. And Fitz will do it, because he's out to save his job.
Leave it to Rutherford to screw things up again and make the team worse. He already made a huge mistake in giving Elias Petterson one of the Top 10 biggest contracts in the NHL, almost as much as Connor McDavid. There is NO WAY Petey deserves it, and will he never live up to the expectations. Meanwhile Hughes gets about $3 million less than Petey, and a trade would make him equal. Why should Hughes stick around with a lame duck team like the Canucks for the next 5-10 years? Every team in the NHL would love to have him. The guy who should be traded is EP40, but nobody wants him. Canucks are now at the bottom of the NHL and the Pacific Division and it will be years before they struggle out of it.
There's so much tampering going on around the league lately. Pietrangelo and Marner and their moves to Vegas, and now Hughes. I can almost guarantee Quinn and his bros have talked about it and who knows just add Fitzy to the group chat so they can work it out beforehand. Now it looks like it's already a given he's not going to resign wherever he gets traded to so that should tan his value when teams already know his heart is in NJ with his bros.
Canucks management sucks!!!
Lol Hamilton picks and prospect not gonna happen. Its gonna start with Marcer,Nemec,1st
Lol youre not getting quinn with dougie Hamilton, picjs and prospects….u high as fuck š
Please, trade management
First, good job on the video. I am a Canucks fan and the Hughes situation is a nightmare. With that said, I will say that the Devils cap situation is a bit of a nightmare as well. I can assure you that the Canucks have no interest in Dougie Hamilton and his anchor contract. Saying that, Plain and simple the Canucks need young help down the middle, a prospect D-man and a pick minimum. I canāt see the Devils coming up with that even in two years. If they did take Hamilton they will want at least Mercer and Nemec & a pick in return. In all likelihood a better deal could happen with the Red Wings in my judgement. Quin lives in Michigan in the offseason as well as his family. Red Wings could make the deal tomorrow with a tons of cap space, prospects picks. Nate Danielson and/or Marco Kasper, Axel etc Devils have a real nice team. I am not sure that the fan base realizes how good Quin is but he probably ranks in the top 7 or 8 players on the planet. He and Makar are the best D in the world period.
Finally as a Canucks fan this is devastating. I do believe that the Devils will be in the hunt, I would not bet against them. However, if the deal is not done soon I suspect that the price will soar as the season goes on. Happy Holidays to all of you āJoyzeeā guys.
More made up nonsense
A nice wish for Jersey! Give up garbage to get Quinn? If Rutherford made that deal he would be fired on the spot!!
Package has to include Nemec, Casey & a 1st.
The Canucks need trade Thatcher because he not good gaoltender. It was mistake trading there other gaoltenders. The Canucks are not good at all. They suck. For Quinn Hughes they should keep him on tell his contract ran out because other teams not offering nothing for him just bench for the season take c away from because he not the captain anymore. Give the captain spot to someone else.
u have one of the best defenseman of all time leading in many statistical categories for dougie hamilton??? teams are backing up the truck to pay the premium for 2 playoff runs. u are trying to get him cheap with the justification u can get him for free later. thats not guaranteed. he can choose to go play for a contender instead.
You think Dougir Hamilton doesnt have canucks on modified no trade list?
What a waste! You have a player that is loved by the city and is captain and he can't keep his mouth shut! A professional would be shooting down all the rumors if he was a class act! If not to act with professional then at least for the fans that hold him with such high regard, what a waste!
If the Devils do this, the purpose should be to save cap space. That only happens if Hamilton goes the other way, and yet they still have cap AND defense roster-space problems once Pesce and Kovacevic are healthy. The team really needs help in the bottom-six forwards (after Jack is healthy) and learning to play without Jack. Unless it helps the cap situation, Iād wait out the season before going after Quinn. (Getting a new goalie coach would help with no cap implications, but thatās a different discussion altogether).
Nemec is undoubtedly going to be in that package
Canuck fans are really struggling with this one.
Please re-sign with the Nucks for 7 years, Huggy. Vancouver needs you!!!
Hawks have assets. But
would not do it.
Ripped off deal
People need to understand that new jersey cant afford hughes on the money side. There has to be some going out as well and why is Hamilton the one being talked about when the canucks do not need a right hand D? If dougie is involved in some way there qould be a 3rd party involved because if im not mistaken he has a no movement or atleast a modified no move. Then theres the resigning of quinn which gets even more complicated. If new jersey is going for quinn i think the canucks are asking for bratt because the canucks are desperate for scoring help and then plus plus maybe new jersey trades dougie to someone else in 3 way trade and gives the canucks a couple pieces from that deal? Again who really knows anything but i really dont see the canucks getting dougie hamilton on there team when its all said and done.
If they wait for him to be UFA they can only sign him to a 6 year deal that doesn't have huge signing bonus'. If a team RE-signs him to a contract before September 15 2026 they can give him 2 extra years and crazy signing bonus'. Quinn would be leaving 40 million ish dollars of guaranteed money that is lockout proof and paid up front on the table to play with his brothers. You think that is likely?
Good luck with that
no way bro hamilton is a old man
