The latest update on Hughes is both a positive and a negative, as it has been confirmed he will miss some time, but according to Lindy Ruff, it's supposed to be 'a matter of weeks, not months', meaning it could have been much, much worse.
Hughes suffered an upper-body injury in the 4-2 win over the Chicago Blackhawks that also saw star Connor Bedard taken out, and with the Devils finally picking up some huge momentum, it appears as though they'll be without their top star for a little while going forward.
