2025 Fantasy Outlook
Before missing 10 of 13 games from early February to mid-March due to injuries, Hughes was the leader among defenders with 59 points through 47 appearances. Since the 2021-22 campaign, he ranks second among all rearguards with 312 points and first with 264 assists across 304 regular-season appearances. Hughes is also second among defensemen in power-play points (132) during that stretch. From a purely offensive standpoint, only Cale Makar ranks ahead of Hughes. The 25-year-old Hughes should be one of the first blueliners off the board in fantasy drafts, but potential managers should be aware that he won’t help much in categories outside of points and shots.

Two helpers in shootout loss
Hughes notched two assists, including one on the power play, three shots on goal, two blocked shots and two PIM in Thursday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Flyers.
ANALYSIS
Hughes has a goal and seven helpers during his six-game point streak spanning all of March. The 26-year-old defenseman continues to be a great fit in Minnesota -- he has earned 43 points in 34 outings with the Wild since he was acquired in a December trade. Overall, the blueliner is at six goals, 60 helpers, 159 shots on net, 67 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 60 contests this season.

At the age of 24 -- he'll turn 25 on Oct. 14 -- Hughes is already well-established as one of the top offensive defensemen of his generation, and he has the potential to be remembered as one of the best puck-moving blueliners of all time once everything is said and done. He set career highs in 2023-24 with 17 goals and 92 points across 82 regular-season contests, making it the third straight campaign in which he exceeded the 65-point mark and the fifth consecutive season with over 40 points. Dating back to 2021-22, Hughes has 32 goals and 236 points across 236 contests, a total which ranks below only Roman Josi (240 points) and Cale Makar (242) among defensemen over the last three years. Hughes doesn't do much in non-offensive categories -- he finished 2023-24 with 38 PIM, 29 hits and 55 blocks -- but he's a good bet to once again compete for the scoring title among defensemen in 2024-25.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Going to Minnesota?
Hughes is being traded to the Wild on Friday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
ANALYSIS
The return to Vancouver hasn't been announced yet, but Hughes' status as one of the top blueliners in the league will lead to a large haul. Expect at least two players and potentially multiple picks. Hughes will take over as the Wild's top blueliner and a candidate for the first power-play unit, where he'll be feeding Kirill Kaprizov for goals. This is a bump up in quality of surroundings for Hughes.
