Connor Hughes was so good this season he ended up fully establishing himself as the number 1 starter in Lausanne, which is one of the top 3 teams in the most talent-rich league in all Europe (just above the SHL) he's .940 in 19 games of regular season. Best SV% of all goalies in NL having played 15 games or more.
Not only that but he then CARRIED that team to the Swiss playoffs final. He's got a .933 with 2 clean sheets in those 18 playoffs games.
Kaskisuo ain't bad at all, and as you mentioned a good deal more AHL/NHL seasoned than Hughes, but let's be honest : he's nowhere near that level.
If they're bringing Connor Hughes in it's clearly to challenge Dobes significantly more and try to bring the Rocket back into the playoffs. Times of mentoring are over, welcome to the era of fighting for the spot Jakub.
im not happy about jf houle . whatever ill outlast him always do . im also not a fan of fast tracked elcs . or smurfs on d , that can get you points .except in the playoffs . gorton/hughes second mistake with the habs imo .
the first being that bad lehkonnen trade for barron .
I would like to have seen Kas come back. He has been very upfront with the team and has said he wants to be a Rocket.
Very timely video. Seems the players are behind Houle and those that have moved up or down and back have done pretty well. Hughes stabilized his goaltending. Incoming prospects should add some scoring punch which should help the Rocket have a stronger season. Hughes was mentored by Cristobal Huet and was the best goalie in Europe… I think this is a different beast than Mann was as Hughes is 27 from London, ON… not worried at all about him and his role with Dobes. Davidson could be fun if he can play a full season!
