New Jersey Devils forward Jack Hughes is considered one of the best players in the NHL right now, but injuries have started to raise doubts among those in the national media. This offseason, Hughes has seen his star's shine wear just a little. Now 24 years old, Hughes isn't considered among the ultra-young players, with future stars like Connor Bedard, Macklin Cellebrini, and even his brother Luke Hughes taking that mantle.
Hughes is expected to be in his prime. However, shoulder issues have forced Hughes to miss huge chunks of time, and he's yet to hit 100 points in a season because of it.
