It took just one game for Quinn Hughes to make Minnesota Wild fans fall in love with him even more than they already were.

Following a 6-2 detonation of the Bruins, in which Hughes played 27 dominating minutes of ice time and scored a goal, he said everything Wild fans were hoping to hear about his future in Minnesota.

Not everyone was pleased, though.

Mike Valenti, who hosts a show in Detroit on 97.1 The Ticket, took issue with one specific part of Hughes' comments about being traded to the Wild. Specifically, he heard it as a shot at Red Wings general manager Steve Yzerman for balking at doing enough to make a trade happen.
