Hughes recorded a power-play assist in Monday's 2-1 win over the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
Hughes set up Elias Pettersson for the opening tally eight minutes into the game. The 22-year-old Hughes has stumbled a bit lately with just two helpers in the last seven games. The American blueliner is at two goals, 14 assists (seven on the power play), 47 shots on net and a plus-1 rating in 22 contests overall. Hughes has typically not been a steady presence in his own end, but he's actually been decent in that regard this year, although the Canucks' defense as a whole remains poor.

The 22-year-old is typically reliable on offense -- he has 15 points, 42 shots on net and a plus-3 rating through 20 contests. Even as the team around him struggles, Hughes should get back to being regularly involved in scoring plays.

The Florida native is up to two goals, 12 assists, 29 shots on net and a plus-5 rating through 15 appearances. He'll continue to be the Canucks' more prolific scoring blueliner, although the team may want him to add a bit more in his own zone as well.

The defenseman has added 19 shots on net, nine blocked shots and a plus-5 rating -- his defensive work has been a bit improved in the early going, which is a positive trend to making his game well-rounded as opposed to offense only.

Hughes scored a goal on two shots and added four PIM in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Hughes tied the game at 1-1 just 2:15 into the first period with his second goal of the season. His first penalty of the game was an interference minor on Joel Farabee that led to the Flyers taking the lead for good on the ensuing power play. That's a mixed-bag kind of night for Hughes, who is up to six points, 14 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through seven contests. He's also taken eight PIM.
