Elite skating, hockey sense and skill. Hughes has most attributes you look for in a star player. A very agile player with incredible speed. He is also equipped with fast hands and his puck handling along with his skating allows him to regularly beat player one-on-one. (EP 2019)

Hughes has tremendous first step which sets him apart; at times you don’t notice him cause he is small but when he gets the puck, watch out.
—ISS Hockey 2019

Hughes goes from 0-to-60 in a flash and can make plays with the puck at speed that most people can’t even fathom with the benefit of a bird
—EPrinkside.com 2019

His edge work, agility, elusiveness, acceleration and top-gear are elite
—Hockeyprospect.com 2019

His playmaking abilities are exceptional and he’s so poised with the puck, he always makes smart decisions
—Future Considerations 2019

He can go for a full shift with the puck on his stick in the offensive zone and no one can come close to taking it from him
