Something Special is Brewing in Vancouver...

[@TheBluelineHockey]

*Editors Note* Trevor Linden was the youngest captain in Canucks history at age 21. Will Quinn Hughes repeat as Norris Trophy winner?

[@billytessio6326]

Hughes having his apartment window facing the arena and city like he’s Batman looking out at Gotham is aura asf

[@twilight_luna127]

His mind is always on the prize, the Stanley Cup.

[@CanucksNate]

Yessir Hughes gonna win the Norris again

[@gocanuckurself1]

I LOVE HUGHESY!!!!!!!!!!

[@twilight_luna127]

Me too, he is very admirable in my eyes.

[@CashMacGregor]

in the pre season game against calgary he was a man among boys. head and shoulders above everybody on both sides.

[@Petry4u]

Great video, thank you ❤!

[@boxvango9021]

To repeat the Norris the pairing of Hronek and Hughes will have to push their dominance into the second half of the season. Tailing off as they did kept Hughes from the 100 point plateau. Now I'm not suggesting that is the goal. We all know Hughes pushes to improve himself each year. If we didn't, we do now thanks to this video. 👍 I'm sure he and Hronek both gained valuable experience last year. They kicked a$$! And they'll both be ready to do it again. Sure, someone else could steal his thunder next year. But he will be a top contender for years to come. He will break 100 points, he will break the 20 goal barrier, and he will win the Norris again. He's HOF material.

I'll go with Josi on this one. I think Nashville is primed for a huge season and Josi may reap the benefits of a much improved offense. Conversely, i think Vancouver may see a slight regression after a vastly improved season last year. Seems like Demko may not carry his normal workload due to a nagging injury-which means a backup caliber goalie may carry a large amount of the playing time. not a good scenario for Hughes to repeat.

[@MrPointmidget]

Josi has already peaked and is on a downward trajectory. He's still a top 5 defenseman in the league, but I'd put Hughes and Makar on another tier. Hughes is still at least 4 years from peaking, and already hitting the peak numbers of Josi.

[@giantessmaria]

@@MrPointmidget we'll see eh?

[@mrcool81_]

@giantessmaria I think Josi is great, but Hughes is on another level, no debate about that sorry

[@cdscotton]

Great video!

[@rejecht_3042]

"Let's not give these guys shit" chills.

[@CoconutsGlow]

Loved Z. He added the fear factor. Wish there were a way for him to have stayed. I really really hope we see a Bru's final where we can make him regret signing. Just a Bru's final to thrash them before Marchand retires... pleeeese hockey Gods.

[@suncheeserailway]

0:11 Imagine winning trophies pushing 40 years old. Scratch that - Imagine winning a Norris Trophy at 40 years old. Heck, imagine winning 6 of them after you turn 31

[@leonardmccannon3136]

He might but it’s pointless to discuss that now. Fan bases should never start the year talking this shit. If I was going to point out anything to Hughes right now about expectations, it would be the poll this past week regarding who will be the next winner of the Norris. Guess what- Hughes’ name isn’t even on it. I kid you not. Now, that’s exactly what I would want Hughes to hear going into the season. They think it was fluke he won.. Don’t respect him yet? Watch out!

[@rodneyhickman825]

He obviously spent this off-season really working on his slap shot .

[@remimk]

At first I thought JT would be the Captain this year. But I underestimated Quinn's Leadership. In the 90s, Captains needed to yell and scream to gain respect out of fear. Quinn doesn't need that. He uses his pure awkwardness to shatter any ego, and only those confident in themselves and their abilities and their efforts, are comfortable with Hughes 🤭 im just kinda joking

[@stevocanuck]

Losing the playoffs last season was so frustrating. A healthy Canucks team would’ve wiped the oilers easy to go to the 3rd round

[@the6ig6adwolf]

Fun Fact: I can see Quinn's apartment from my apartment.

[@Mr_Osborne1]

I would be trying to get his auto at all costs

[@wildhorse4]

I'm pretty sure Trevor Linden was 21 when he was named captain

[@TheBluelineHockey]

You are correct

[@BadBoiFilms]

his Norris still hasn't been added to hockeydb. Salty oilers fan? or a salty avalanche fan do you think?

[@mikelevesque9753]

HES A NEAT GUY GLAD TO HAVE HIM

[@chuck2469]

I hope Hughes wins the Norris again but unless he is undisputed best D man in the NHL he isn't going to go back to back, if you go back to back you are going to the HOF

[@Stalitic]

if u like slowed ur speaking down and told bedtime stories, you could definitely put me to sleep

[@Mandela-zc9qv]

Hughes isn't even the best defensemen in his own family. Luke has skill AND size.

Might have rattled some people if he didn’t just win the Norris. lol Now your comment just makes you look slow.

What is the point on adding “Russian” to it?? Sounds bigoted

[@thehitstorychannel]

Hughes is overrated, Evan Bouchard will win the Norris

[@jkim-pz5oo]

whos evan bouchard?

[@mrcool81_]

My guy said poochard 😂

[@sharkhaos_probably]

i could see bouchard winning one... but as it is now Hughes is winning it before Bouchard. Bouch needs to step up his game massively.

[@CanucksNate]

Bro poochard sucks 🤣

[@MrPointmidget]

Bouchard has a good one-timer, but he's poopoo defensively and doesn't drive play. His numbers are also hella inflated by McDavid and Draisaitl. Hughes has the puck on a string when he's on ice. He has the best puck possession numbers in the entire league, and he breaks ankles with his deek.
