Hey, MN wild… you know you can edit videos on youtube, right? You know, like taking out the fist 9 FUCKING MINUTES!
go win a cup huggy bear 😭
3 good hockey players for one great one who will leave for NJ in a year and a half…..bad trade.
Why would you leave in 10 minutes of nothing
Yo who ran over bills dog why he so freaking sad .looks like deer in headlights. Ima say im sure bills great guy maybe to many concussions
My ears are ringing from this trade.
Congratulations Minnesota. You just took our best player.
"State of Hockey" with 0 Championships. Nobody respects Minnesota or cares to play there until they win a Cup. This is step in the right direction for sure, but that will linger until they actually make it deep in the playoffs
Quinn is unreal. Wild fans will be blown away when they see how elite Quinn is on a nightly basis.
Hopefully this turns into a win-win for both teams, short term Wild long term Canucks.
they've become the Canucks down the middle
Let me make it very clear to you in Minnesota folks. I grew up in Montreal watching the Canadiens kill everyone. Moved to Vancouver in the 90s and I've been following the Canucks since then of course being an avid hockey fan. Well you guys just got clear good enough that I just threw $25 on the wild to win the Stanley Cup at 29. That is way too high. Obviously it's a monumental ask, but I consider it partly a donation to Quinn out of respect for him as a player and a dude. From what I gather he is a genuinely awesome human being along with being an awesome player. Sadly, like many people in this market, his talents are being suppressed. Give him some freedom and it will pay off for you. And I wish you the best of luck.
#1 G.M. in the league. Congrats Billy.
Making meatballs? Like "Goodfellas"?.
the odds of Quinn making it thru 4 rounds of playoff savagery and staying healthy is less then 20% imo but id love to see him lift a Cup in Minny
Time to go see a game
Love this trade for Minnesota
Still not going to beat Colorado, Dallas!, or Edmonton!!
Canucks fan here, I will follow the Wild now because I love Quinn Hughes, he will be missed.
Great trade for all particularly Van Minnesota Treat your crystal well it tends to be FRAGILE 😊
Minnesota deserves a shot….been a great hockey city since 67…..
Vancouverite here… a lot of us love Minnesota and Quinn is a great player (overused) but even better is a class guy
i think both teams won,,, the toxic media is bad here in Vancouver
Quinn's skating is unreal.. we see him quite often in vancouver ..
Good luck with Hughes! Hes a puck hog that doesn’t stick up for his teammates! Hes showing signs of being injury prone cause he refuses to leave the ice ]. Hes a me me me guy. And watch when things get tough he acts like a child and pouts. His body language is horrendous! We dodged a bullet of getting off him early. That being said we got to see him play while he was at his very best and it was a treat. I hope the same for you! Kinda lol
Gutsy Manager move by BG, imo, all-in next couple seasons at least. Guessing he is hunting hard for a large-size C, a top-drawer one even.
I like your GM…
Is his hair red or am I tripping
Gotta respect all of you canucks fans. Never had a second team to cheer for but since my guy buium is there im gonna watch canucks games 😊
Hughes is a generational defenseman. He's worth it!
So basically there’s no guarantee he stays here…
If we lose him after a year, it’ll be one of the biggest blunders in Mn hockey history. Buium has the makings of a star/super star, Rossi is a 60-80pt player and only 24, Ohgren has a floor of a 3rd liner but could be a 20-30goal scorer.
Hughes will help the franchise if you can extend him. In the meantime he will help the team. He is a zone exit/entry machine. He's a puck possession party. The guy can snap ankles and break a team's defensive coverage. He will instantly add a boost to your powerplay.
Vancouver fans will miss him, but it wasn't his fate to finish here. I hope he gets a real shot at the cup because a talent like him is made for it.
Just to think, Judd was involved in scouting and drafting every single hockey player in this trade.
Now come over to the Vikes! They need help in making gutsy moves.
There are real GM's like Bill and then we have Partick 😂. In all fairness, the Canucks did well in this trade. They best not be trading that 1st like they usually do.
I am happy Quinn went to the Wild, not some big market team.
Wild fans just won the lottery 🎰❄️ Quinn Hughes is HIM. Best D in the world elite skating, elite IQ, runs a game like a QB and changes everything the moment he’s on the ice. Minnesota is instantly more dangerous. Guerin is a G just watched his interview beauty of a guy and for making this move. Hurts as a Canucks fan but respect the vision hope the return sets us up long term. Take care of our guy 🫡🔥
He’s lucky to have Quinn at that price point. He could easily be 14 mil
The Wild fans will enjoy watching Huggy. Here in Vancouver he would do things no other player can do. Good luck in the playoffs, Wild!
Speaking of meatballs, Billy please, please get checked out for Graves’ disease. Oh, and Go Wild.
We will miss Quinn. Not sure he is a captain in the traditional sense, but he gave his all every night through his play. Next level talent
These are the types of deals you need to do to win. It stinks to lose those guys but I'm glad they did this
Hell of move Bill 🫰Now we just gotta get the other two brothers
Don't Wild need a RH forward?

Wild fans, you’re in for a treat! Hughes is one of the best players in Vancouver Canucks history! Please go get that cup! As a Canucks fan, I’ll be cheering for your team to win it with Quinn hopefully this year or next year. Loved Quinn and it breaks my heart to see him go but I’m happy he has a chance to win it all. It will be tough against Colorado and Dallas but you guys have a chance now 🙂 cheers!
