The Vancouver Canucks listened to trade offers for a few weeks on defenceman Quinn Hughes, and from the sounds of it, there were quite a few deals to mull over. According to TSN's Pierre LeBrun, six teams made offers for Hughes, with of course, the one Jim Rutherford ended up accepting coming from Bill Guerin and the Minnesota Wild. Confirmed teams that tried on Quinn Hughes: New Jersey, Detroit, Rangers; and to some degree, Carolina and Buffalo. https://t.co/fRQnTxnmCC — Pierre LeBrun (@Pierr...

Minnesota Wild GM Bill Guerin made the biggest splash on the trade market that we will see this NHL season, acquiring Quinn Hughes in a blockbuster deal with the Vancouver Canucks . But sources say he is not done dealing just yet. The cost of fortifying the blueline with a Norris Trophy winner—the second-best defender in the league—is losing a top-six center in the process. At least, that's the role that Marco Rossi will certainly take on with the Canucks, as well as a spot on the top po...

The Minnesota Wild took a huge swing and hit a home run, winning the Quinn Hughes Sweepstakes with their blockbuster trade with the Vancouver Canucks . But will that home run ball be thrown back onto the field, so to speak, when Hughes hits free agency in two summers? According to Steve Ewan in The Vancouver Province , Hughes will almost certainly still ultimately wind up with his brothers in New Jersey. Hughes is set to become an unrestricted free agent after next season, and ther...

The New Jersey Devils were one of the teams in the mix and that made an offer for Quinn Hughes, but the Minnesota Wild landed the star defenseman. That doesn't mean the Devils aren't going to continue trying to upgrade, but there are two players they can do without who are taking up a lot of cap space. Unfortunately, they have trade protection, so it's tougher to move them. Elliotte Friedman said, "Ondrej Palat is the one I think a lot of people are talking about, but he has protection, and I ...

There were a few teams in the running for Vancouver defenseman Quinn Hughes, including a few in the Eastern Conference. Washington was mentioned, New Jersey was tossed around given the sibling connection, and Philadelphia was briefly thrown into the mix. However, trading Hughes to Minnesota for a rather good package of young prospects, a draft pick, and an established center was a decent return for Hughes.
While the Flyers struck out on this current transaction to land the coveted world-c...
