The New Jersey Devils won the draft lottery and the New York Rangers did too. Let’s make one thing clear though, Jack Hughes is the best player in this draft and it was pretty cut and dry until Kaapo Kakko started to surge up the rankings.
Two Franchise Players
Jack Hughes has been opening eyes for 3 years now. His name has been mentioned as the next NHL superstar since Connor McDavid. Yes, he is that good. Still, he is on the small side (5’10”, 179 lbs) and young at 17. His birthday is May 14th making him just 18 years and 38 days old on draft day.
