Hughes, 24, is off to a fantastic start to the 2023-24 season and while it's still very early, he's put himself to the forefront of the Norris Trophy conversation with how he's played.
In 11 games, Hughes has 16 points (four goals, 12 assists), eight penalty minutes and is a plus-14. Last week, the Orlando native tied a franchise record for most points in a single game by a defenceman with five during a blowout win over the San Jose Sharks.
Hughes and the Canucks will return to action on Monday night as they host the Edmonton Oilers at Rogers Arena, which marks the third meeting between the two teams this season. Puck drop is set for 7 p.m. PT/10 p.m. ET on Sportsnet.
