Devil Dan

@theoweneffect_ @MikeBartner @nucksmemes No but it didnt prove anything either. You're argument was that he is more likely to go to Minnesota which is still just an opinion and not a fact.

@Devil_DanNJ @MikeBartner @nucksmemes That I will give you. But did anything he say in that video discredit what I’ve been arguing the whole time?

@nucksmemes and I are in agreement that the Quinn Hughes rumors are overblown and he likely will re-sign in Minnesota (even if it’s shorter term). Team is in a great spot right even after losing in 5.

@theoweneffect_ @MikeBartner @nucksmemes I should probably add that all news and media has bias to it as humans will always have their own personal opinions and beliefs

@theoweneffect_ @MikeBartner @nucksmemes in this scenario the Islanders are a Division rival to the Devils this would be the equivalent of a Stars fan saying he thinks Quinn goes to NJ. This is not a discredit to his reporting skills, but this is an opinion which can stem from bias.

@theoweneffect_ Im not playing the Devils have been more successful card tho if I wanted to they won their first cup in 13 years, I'm saying the talent gap between Minnesota and NJ is not that large rn NJ just needs to workout the kinks.

@Devil_DanNJ I mean that’s completely fair, but we also have half as many years in the league as you…

Devils fans will try to tell you this isn’t the more likely outcome between the Hughes brothers switching teams. Just point and laugh at them

@theoweneffect_ @MikeBartner @nucksmemes You just pointed out his bias in that sentence, do you know what bias means?

@Devil_DanNJ @MikeBartner @nucksmemes Son, he’s an Islanders fan that covers the NHL…

@theoweneffect_ @MikeBartner @nucksmemes How is this unbiased lmao do you know what the word means it's literally his opinion "I think it's more likely Jack Hughes goes to Minnesota" 😂😂😂

@MikeBartner @nucksmemes @Devil_DanNJ Literal unbiased hockey media is saying it. What more do ya need?

@theoweneffect_ You'd think if you're team is so much more successful they'd have won more than one game in the second round in the past 12 years.

@Devil_DanNJ Same amount of second round appearances but more missed playoff years? Are we serious? But I’ll give ya the devils records.

@theoweneffect_ Again NJ has been just as far as Minnesota in recent years there's no saying that he would be more successful in Minnesota. His career in NJ he has the most points in a single season in Devils history, and is on pace for most career points plus golden goal scorer 🤷‍♂️

@Devil_DanNJ It’s not about knowing him💀 Every player is going to do what’s best for his career and if he’s happy in NJ, more power to him but if he wants to meet both his career and personal needs in hockey, not only would he be paired with Quinn but he becomes a 1C on a team that needs one

@theoweneffect_ Paycut*

@theoweneffect_ Lmao if he wants to play with his brothers he'll take a payout to go NJ not to stay in Minny

@theoweneffect_ Yes because you know Jack personally ok bud. Devils started the season 8-0 this year and won more games than other playoff teams, just failed to drag losses into OT and lost because of injuries and horrible goal tending, acting like the Devils are a bottom feeder team is crazy.

@Devil_DanNJ They need more than Quinn to escape .500 jail. Wild were a playoff team before Quinn. He turned us into an actual threat. Jack would ditch Luke if given the chance to play winning hockey. Luke needs to develop more, could be ready in that 3 year window tho, I’ll give ya that

@theoweneffect_ Why wouldn't he want a 3 year contract to gain leverage? He's in the driver's seat with his negotiations, if Billy G doesn't give him what he wants then he doesn't sign in Minny.

@Devil_DanNJ If he extends it’ll be for 5 plus. 3 year extension gives Billy G no chance to get him help. Just math.

@theoweneffect_ Didnt you say that is a soft reason? You're logic is that Jack would ditch Luke to play with Quinn to contend, ignoring the fact that adding Quinn to the Devils roster would most certainly make them contenders.

@Devil_DanNJ For the exact reason you guys think he’s coming there. If Jack comes here, he gets to play with his brother AND contend yearly. He gets only one of those in NJ

@theoweneffect_ No let's use a big brain here, if Quinn resigns with Minny for 3 years to match Jack's contract the two of them could choose a better team to join, which would make Jack ending up in Min not the most likely scenario according to you. Because why would they sign with a weaker team

@Devil_DanNJ Yes but who does Quinn have the opportunity to extend with? Let’s use context here

@theoweneffect_ 🙄 he wouldnt be the first player to leave a franchise to play with his brother. But the argument is how is Jack more likely to end up in Minnesota. If it's to be on a more competitive team, there are plenty of better options than Minnesota.

@Devil_DanNJ You still haven’t answered the “what competitive reasons would entice him to go to Jersey” question. Because if it’s just to play with Jack, that’s the softest shit your fanbase has ever come up with it

@theoweneffect_ Unlike Minnesota, Vegas has won a cup proving they have had playoff success is my point. My argument is that Minnesota is not a top dog team and if his reason for leaving the Devils is to play for a better team why would he settle for Minnesota.

@Devil_DanNJ Vegas boutta lose to the same Colorado team who took us out. And also, if the West is weaker than the East, why the hell would he want to stay and compete against Buffalo, MTL, and Carolina yearly…

@theoweneffect_ Again there's other teams he could go to for more opportunities to play in the playoffs he could go to Vegas and be an actual contender, no reason why Minnesota would specifically be his choice

@Devil_DanNJ He’d get more opportunities to play playoff hockey here than there over the next decade I can guarantee that

@theoweneffect_ The numbers back up that he'd be eliminated from the playoffs more often this is the furthest run minnesota has had in 11 years lmao

@Devil_DanNJ Jack would have more opportunities to go on a run here than he would there brother… The numbers literally back it up

@theoweneffect_ Not what I said, learn to read I said its the same result and how is losing to one team better than the other.

@Devil_DanNJ Did you just argue that losing to Carolina is more enticing than Dallas or Colorado? There’s no way I just read that…
