The eighth episode of our Road to the Draft podcast is our first episode since the draft itself happened. First-overall pick Jack Hughes joined Matt Loughlin and Amanda Stein to discuss several topics, including his thoughts on the trade for P.K. Subban.
"I think that's awesome," Hughes said. "He's, obviously, a bigger-than-life kind of guy away from the rink so I think that will be pretty cool to get to meet him and be on his team but away from the great person he is, he's a Norris Trophy-winning defenseman so he's a high-end player, a number-one D, and a guy who can log 20-plus minutes. To have him on your team, I think that changes kind of the complexion of your team a little bit."
