"The decision reportedly came from Quinn Hughes himself, with him not wanting to sign a contract extension with the Vancouver Canucks this summer. Canucks' 2024-25 season had sharply declined, and the organization needed to make changes. By trading Hughes, they received a massive package of prospects and a high draft pick (forwards Marco Rossi and Liam Öhgren, defenseman Zeev Buium, and a 2026 first-round pick)."
"Combining his stats from his time in the Vancouver Canucks and the Minnesota Wild, Quinn Hughes holds 35 points with 3 goals and 32 assists in 38 games, ranking him 7th in points among defensemen and 3rd in assists. As of January 7, the Vancouver Canucks sit near the bottom of the league with a record of16-21-5 for 37 points. Meanwhile, the Minnesota Wild stands at 25-11-8 for 58"
Quinn Hughes was traded from the Vancouver Canucks to the Minnesota Wild after refusing a contract extension, prompting the first Hughes Bowl in Minnesota on January 12, 2025. The trade returned prospects Marco Rossi, Liam Öhgren, defenseman Zeev Buium and a 2026 first-round pick to Vancouver as part of a rebuild strategy focused on younger talent. Jack Hughes missed part of the season due to a shoulder injury that ended his 2024-25 season early, delaying sibling matchups. Quinn has 35 points (3 goals, 32 assists) in 38 games, ranking seventh among defensemen in points and third in assists. As of January 7, Vancouver holds a 16-21-5 record for 37 points, while Minnesota sits 25-11-8 for 58 points.
