The Devils came in second place for Quinn Hughes. The 26-year-old superstar Canucks defenseman — who is brothers with Devils players Jack and Luke Hughes — was shockingly dealt to the Minnesota Wild on Friday. Going to Vancouver in the deal is Marco Rossi, Zeev Buium, Liam Ohgren and a first round pick, Sportsnet insider Elliotte Friedman reported.

Luke Hughes shared his thoughts after his brother Quinn Hughes was traded to the Minnesota Wild. Quinn was initially linked to the New Jersey Devils because of Luke and Jack Hughes.

The idea of Canucks captain Quinn Hughes one day ending up a Devil has been floating around since 2023-24, when his youngest brother, Luke, joined his middle brother, Jack, in New Jersey.

Quinn Hughes, a Norris Trophy winner, has been traded from the Vancouver Canucks to the Minnesota Wild. This move comes as his family, including NHL brothers Jack and Luke Hughes, continues to make history on the ice.

Trade talk continues to follow the New Jersey Devils after their failed pursuit of Quinn Hughes. While missing out on the star defenseman drew headlines, it may not signal the end of movement.

The Quinn Hughes era is over in Vancouver. The Vancouver Canucks are trading Hughes to the Minnesota Wild, the franchise announced Friday. Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman first reported the news. The Canucks received Marco Rossi, Liam Öhgren, Zeev Buium and a 2026 first-round pick in return.

And while it’s still early, Hughes sounded like a superstar who appreciated so much how he was valued — and how much Guerin gave up — that he’d strongly consider re-signing with the Wild when he becomes a unrestricted free agent in 2027.
