Dave McCarthy: “So I have a feeling that people in New Jersey, if not excited, cannot get the name of Luke Hughes on their contract these days.

There are always some people who come out of the entry level in RFA. Luke Hughes has shown himself to be a very high-quality player. What do you know about their current negotiations? Do they seem to be long-term? Do they seem short-term? Where do you understand where these negotiations are located? ”
Dave Pagnotta: “Well, I mean, they definitely discussed both situations. Both options are in the long term with the advancement of getting a bridge contract. And I think the way he has a salary cap is 21, a shorter term to keep him within RFA status might be your choice.
We know his brother obviously signed a long-term deal for his last one. However, many people exit the bridge’s deal before deciding to commit it for a long time so that he can move in that direction. But I don’t think that even if he is not eligible for the offer form, I don’t think there is really a worry that neither party can be able to accomplish something by the end of the camp for a moment. So, obviously, this is a priority.
Apparently, the whole summer wasn’t as active as we believe. Maybe this is other discussion, and for many fans, the event may not be visible in the summer. But look, I think the devil understands what their choice is. I think Luke and his agent Pat Brisson and the CAA guys know where they are. Obviously, the goal is to make sure he is ready and ready to go to the camp.

We chatted with Nico Hischier on a European Media Player Tour and talked about the two brothers and what they mean to the team. Obviously, Luke is an important part of the team’s future, but I think they’re all confident that they’ll get the job done. Now it’s just a clumsy thing, and then push.
Everyone loves working in deadlines. Now, once we’ve had Labor Day, I think we’ve seen some positive attitudes in this regard, which is already frustrating for the Devil’s fans in this regard. ”
McCarthy: “Yeah, I mean, it’s one of those things where the old saying is deadlines produce deals, and there’s really no tipping point at the end of July to get a deal done. There is a tipping point coming up with the start of training camp, and I would be surprised if he’s not in the mix by then, just because I think the Devils understand, one, how important this season is for their team, and then, by extension, two, how important Luke Hughes is to success this particular season.
So we will see how it works. But it’s certain that Luke Hughes has shown himself to be a big part of a moving forward person, and I think he’ll get mixed up. ”
