Jack Hughes Sets NHL Record in Friday's Defeat to the Islanders
In Friday's matchup against the New York Islanders, Jack Hughes set an all-time NHL record. Down three goals near the end of the third period, Hughes played the final 6:02, marking the longest shift in the league's 105-year history.
Hughes scored a goal in that time too, pulling the Devils within two goals. Not that it would matter with regards to the score.
Still, the young pivot made history on Friday night, and he is still just 21 years old. He is proving that he belongs among the NHL's elite players, as the Devils 2019 first-overall sits T-10th in the NHL's point scoring race.
Something tells me this won't be the first record in the books for Jack Hughes...
