This is pretty freaking cool, people got their money's worth tonight
As a Jewish guy from New Jersey I can't explain how proud I am of this kid
Heโs so easy to root for. Heโs got a fan for life!
This the guy who keeps getting his teeth knocked out?
Goteeem one
Love seeing Canada lose.
They might as well put his jersey in the rafters right now lol
Will never take for granted how blessed I am to have this guy on my favorite team.
When you realize all the outrage was just chronically online social media freaks that arenโt even hockey fans.
Jack Hughes = Class Act
Go Blue!

Those kids are adorable.
GO JACK , GO USA
Did they boo the governor and her first they/them?
Congratulations from Sweden ๐
The nhl athletes are SO likabl, humble and real: Meanwhile nba and mlb players are completely opposite
This Rangers fan has nothing but Respect for you Jack. You're a class act and I'm very proud of you.
Jack can say whatever he wants, give him the mic.
I'm a fan โคโคโค
Most hockey fans are not fans of the governor. Canโt blame them, her start in the military at USNA was questionable at best. I guess she skipped over the Honor Code section? People see things and are not fooled. Jack is the real deal.
Living legend!
Go USA!!
Letโs see, a genuine outpouring of happiness and patriotism from proud Americans versus the โmanufacturedโ outrage from the left.
Sadly the stands were filled with wealthy white trash that night absolutely shameful , lady has been gov for less then 3 months & people boo her during an Olympic honoring ceremony? Classless maga scum & I feel shame sharing my state with garbage like that
Go Jack!!!๐ฅ
BOO Sherrill
Congratulations Jack………….ADIOS……….MAGA
A band of Brothers brought home the gold medal. Jack's gesture to Tage Thompson was great.

Iโm glad that they are not going to the White House because of Trumplethinskin.
Love it! Congrats to the boys! Regardless of team, country, thatโs how it should be. We are athletes! Politics should stay out of sports.

Hahaha
Loved the Booโs
Hughes pulls his Olympic team mate from the opposing team. Classy. NHL baby!!! ๐
Itโs hilarious how people were like, โthey tarnished their reputation, everyoneโs gonna boo them, so disappointingโ only for the exact opposite to happen. Crowd went wild with American pride when he arrived ๐
Young kid with so much talent , so humble and so much respect for the game…amazing role model for the youngsters….๐๐๐ to his parents as well……..maybe MacKinnon should take lessons
One tough kid!
