The 2026 Winter Olympics are showcasing the phenomenal talent of Team USA star defenseman Quinn Hughes.
Since the Minnesota Wild acquired him in mid-December, Hughes has been everything the Wild had hoped for and then some – and he's made the huge cost Minnesota had to pay to the Vancouver Canucks very much worth it.
Although the price Wild GM Bill Guerin paid for Hughes – center Marco Rossi, promising defenseman Zeev Buium, Swedish young left winger Liam Ohgren and a 2026 first-round draft pick – was massive, you have to think both the Wild and the Canucks are extremely happy with the way things are turning out with this trade.
