The seven New Jersey Devils who represented their countries at the 2026 Milano Cortina Olympics have all concluded play and prepare to head back to Newark.
At the end of their respective journeys, let’s take a look at how each player performed on the global stage.
Jack Hughes
Jack Hughes had an incredible Olympic run, making history by scoring the overtime winner in the gold medal game. Hughes had seven points in six games played: four goals and three assists.
He was the hero in the final game for Team USA, first losing his teeth to a high stick and then bouncing back to win gold for the USA. Hughes had a strong showing and proved how, when healthy, he truly is an incredible player.
