Jack Hughes News: Grabs two points in loss

Hughes tallied a goal on three shots and dished out an assist in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Kraken.

Hughes had the primary helper on Dougie Hamilton's power-play goal in the first period before the star center later scored with a man advantage himself in the third. With the pair of points, Hughes is up to 12 goals, 34 points, 121 shots on net and 16 blocked shots across 34 games this season. Since the calendar flipped to 2026, the 24-year-old forward has elevated his game with 12 points in as many games. He has finished each of the past four seasons above a point-per-game pace and has a strong chance to make it five consecutive campaigns with a steady back half of the season. Barring injury, Hughes should be a high-level fantasy option across all league formats.
