Nuge also got that dawg in him with the willingness to fight sometimes
i went to an open practice and saw nuge, i got a signed training jersey and a photo, love this guy, he’s the reason i’m an oilers fan, i started watching hockey around him being drafted. much respect for nuge
Selke?
I honestly was surprised too
.. was looking at stats last night and was pleasantly surprised to see RNH be way above a point per game.
He looks like a completely different player this year. What a season he's having. Don't be surprised to see him get some selke votes
put a good goalie and some defense and you got a cup contender
bro i dont need his life story
He was supposed to be a 100 point player when he was first drafted. He probably would be on another team. But there's only one puck to go around on an Oilers team that's stacked with 20 forwards. Some of them being defensemen.
Nuge is huge.
Signed a team friendly deal and giving us a career year.
editing is so bad
No mention of him never aging for shame
God bless everyone amen
Life long oilers fan here. I’ve been saying he could have 100 for years now. He’s always had shortened seasons or he’s played on dogshit teams. He’s been the quietest star in the league forever but when u watch every game u realize how much he does out there. I’m glad it’s finally going in for him
I’ve been to the Red Deer arena many times to watch the Res Deer Rebels
Nuge… shoulder takes 10 years to heal…
I love the sentrium and red deer I went to watch him just before he was drafted
Live in reddeer and watching rnh was magical stuff when he was w the rebels
Love the Rebels been to lots of games!!!!!!!
A lot of good players are now looking really good thanks to goalies being on their knees 90% of the time, to stop shots.
He just needed complimentary teammates. He got off to a bad start with bad teammates and that crap takes a while to get through and into a modern day weapon
Yes i watched him in red deer he was a freak against other junior players still wicked in the nhl also beast name
So sick
When Nugent-Hopkins was in junior he was a point getter, hence the ranking of the best available player at the draft.
Then he came into the NHL, he was playing and/or thinking that was going to happen still. Over a few years he slowly started to realize that he was not necessarily going to that still.
So he trained or practiced more as he realized that his game and himself would be different and have to adapt.
And now he has become of the better 2-way forwards, and he could possibly (granted will take more time) be as good as the best in Patrice Bergeron.
Dude. Holl sucks.
At only 5 mill a year he is a STEAL. Holland will probably trade him.
He has one good season this year and he is this magic man? He had underperformed greatly overall until this season, never was a number one pick. He is a minus 38 player for his career. Succeeds mainly like many would on the powerplay with mcd and drai…50 pts average a season over 12 years, which isn't to bad with some of the teams he has been on I guess….but he is not that special.
Finally nuge gets some love.. I totally agree he looks absolutely stellar this season.. he’s fire
Splooge 4 Nuge… drafted him early in fantasy this year, had a feeling bout him ( and Nylander) and I’m 2nd in my league 😎
RNH has always been a utility player. He has a mountain of intangibles that aren't shown on the stat sheet.
Easily the most over-shadowed and under rated player on the team.
You nailed this one on the button! I totally agree!
As I was watching this video, in my mind I was comparing him more to a David Krecji for the B's as a second line center……was surprised to hear you compare him to Patrice Bergeron? Stats may be similar but is he going up agains the best line every night…..taking almost every Ozone and Ozone key face-off, all the Selke stuff.
The underrated pick on my fantasy team, still last placd in my league though
A buddy of mine played in the WHL at the same time as RNH and asked RNH to sign his own broken stick after they played against each other. He is also a massive Oilers fan so it was pretty cool to see RNH get drafted by the Oilers later on. That same buddy also played against Eberle and the Pats the year after Eberle was drafted by the Oilers and he waited in the autograph line in his (Lethbridge) Hurricanes gear after their game to get him to sign his Oilers hat. I had the opportunity to meet RNH in the offseason and he's awesome.
#KeepNugeForever
Edit: RNH was routinely dragged down by garbage teammates for most of his career and sacrificed offense for defense to make up for his bad linemates. People forget that once Eberle and Hall were traded RNH became the babysitter of every line he played on until this year
Nuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge!
Incredible year for the NUGE. Today, he's got more GOALS than Tavares, Matthews and Marner, as well as more points than Matthews, Tavares, AND Nylander. Are you kidding me? He is under the radar, but is a star this year, and as you say, a solid two way player who is amazing on a back check.
So many are attributing RNH production to his teammates. Finally someone like you comes along and shows all the video and breaks down the numbers that prove that RNH is a player on a team with Connor McDavid.
SEND NUGE NOT NUDES
Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Ryan Smyth. Best fan fav players
NUGE!!!!!
Arguably best 2-way forward in the nhl
Biggest goon the Oilers have ever seen! Better keep your head up, Nuge is coming!!!
he's huge
I always knew he had a deadly wrister and he's finally really taking advantage of it this year!!! Never knew he'd be gunning for 100 but I knew he could put up some good numbers and proving it now
that 100 point projection was on point!
As a oilers fan the guy was here when it was ugly to play and he needs more respect from Edmonton
i go there almost every friday i live in red deer
Shoutout to the Oiler organization for keeping him for as long as they have. They knew what they had
