[Sportsnet] « Au sommet de notre art » : Hughes des Canucks prêt à bâtir sur ses succès individuels et collectifs

Quinn thinks he can score 20 goals, maybe 100 points:
>“I felt like I missed a lot of scoring opportunities last year,” he said. “And even though my goal-scoring spiked, I think it can spike again.
> **”This whole summer, I worked on goal scoring — goal scoring from the dot, goal scoring from the top of the circles. So I think I can score more. I think that I can score 20 goals.** As far as the other thing (100 points), I’m not sure. For me, I’m going to try to be aggressive every single night and push the pace, push my game, and then wherever that takes me, it takes me.”
Other interesting things:
– Said Canucks won’t repeat the mistake of collapsing like they did in 2021 after the 2020 playoffs.
– Roman Josi joined the training camp organized by Quinn’s dad in Michigan so Quinn got the chance to learn some things from him this summer (won’t share what exactly, wants to keep them to himself).
– He thinks Canucks can be better than last year, he knows the PP can be better, said they added a lot of depth up front. DeBrusk should help the PP.
– Said he was very vocal with Allvin in wanting to add Kiefer Sherwood because of how he played against them in playoffs (#GMQuinnSZN)
– Quinn arrives in Van this weekend, will participate in Monday’s charity golf tournament and then will be in Vegas for the NHLPA Media Tour next week.
– He briefly talked about Gaudreau at the end, said he loves the idea of renaming the Lady Byng Trophy in honour of Johnny.
Hope he can play goalie. Can’t the see the team improving this year until we figure that out.
O Captain! My Captain!
> “Now, I’m going to be 25. Petey’s going to be 26, Demko 29. Millsy is 32, Brock (Boeser) is older.”
I love how he has everybody’s age memorized and then there’s brock who’s “older”
QH was absolutely the right choice for captain
“I do everything with a purpose. I’m very purposeful.”
This reminds me of my essay writing days to fill the word count: “This was a tragic event that happened that was very hard and heartbreaking for those who witnessed it because of the tragedy that occurred.”
Heheh
Do y’all think he can reach 100? This year or ever?
If he’s coming back today or tomorrow he’s likely the last Canuck to come back to town, I wonder why so different than last year
He prioritized and won the Norris. Now I want him to prioritize not being exhausted in the playoffs and win a cup, Norris or no Norris. Think more along the lines of Conn Smythe.
quinn has a killer instinct that is always trying to find ways to be better, great choice to be our captain
whats the context behind the collasping in 2021? anyone care to enlighten me
