Quinn Hughes transforms the Minnesota Wild offense as the team catches fire, notching four or more goals in five of seven games since his arrival. Seth Toupal spotlights Hughes' playmaking magic, three-assist night against the Winnipeg Jets, and how both Matt Boldy and Kirill Kaprizov are thriving in an energized, high-octane attack. Can Hughes' dynamic presence turn Minnesota into a true playoff contender? The conversation covers soaring offensive numbers, improved chemistry across lines, and the continued reliability of the goaltending tandem—Jasper Wallstedt and Filip Gustavsson—in a pivotal stretch of the NHL season. With a challenging West Coast road trip on tap and potential Olympic roster implications, Seth breaks down key matchups, the penalty kill’s surprising strength, and why the Kings remain a team to watch.
