'It’s just going to be a process and we just have to be patient, starting with himself, but eventually he will get there.' Alain Nasreddine knows that Jack Hughes will be an impactful NHL player for the NJDevils but does have work to do to get there.

The success he had with the NTDP hadn’t quite translated to overwhelming success as a rookie in the NHL though, but that isn’t something to be worried about according to Devils interim head coach Alain Nasreddine.

Hughes, listed at 5-foot-10 and 168 pounds, registered seven goals and 21 points in 61 games with the Devils, which ranked 16th among NHL rookies in 2019-20. The rising Swiss star is no point-per-game forward – at least not yet – but has improved in nearly every area since debuting in the NHL. Nasreddine said he thinks Hischier “took the next step” as a leader on and off the ice after the team traded Taylor Hall to the Arizona Coyotes in mid-December.
