As a Canucks fan I’m so sad he’s gone. But as a Hughes fan, it’s great seeing more of the league realize how elite he is. His impact goes so far beyond just goals and assists. It’s the fact that you don’t even spend time in your own zone when he’s on the ice.
Enjoy him and I’ll be cheering for the Wild come playoff time!

Idk why I thought of this now, but some guy on a comment section was parroting an oft mentioned reason why the Wild can’t hang with the big guys, they can’t score goals. At 3.3 goals a game they are already bunched with the top of the league but the other might vs the Oilers I saw the stat that we have the second most 5 goal games behind the Avs. Quinnithy has certainly helped.

What are our defensive stats before and after? We get hes amazing for the offensive side but did he make us better defensively too?

When was the last time the Wild’s GF was higher ranked in the league than their GA?
What I mean is, we’re currently 7th in the league in goals for, but 10th in goals against. Usually I feel like we’re always top 5 in goals against but like 15th or lower in goals for.

Dont worry Minny, he’s re-signing for sure

This is already a net winning (« quinning ») trade in my book.
If you get at least an extension long term, even better
A Cup, regardless of his length of stay, makes it an automatic win.
I do feel bad for the guys we sent to Vancouver though, being stuck in a rebuild situation. I wish them the best (aside from when they play the Wild of course)
I was worried about giving up so much, but now I’d do this trade again (at the moment anyway)
