The worst was confirmed today for Jack Hughes, who appeared to have suffered a minor injury during the NHL All-Star Game. Head coach Lindy Ruff announced that Hughes would be out week-to-week, which in hockey talk usually means about a month.
This is terrible news for the breakout star, who was far exceeding a point-per-game, and defining himself as a top player in the league.
Luckily, Ruff added that Hughes would be on the lower end of week-to-week, so hopefully we'll be seeing a return in February.
