Hughes scored a goal on three shots in Thursday's 5-1 loss to the Kings. Hughes got the Canucks on the board at 14:52 of the second period, though the Kings answered with a goal just over a minute later.

In the immortal words of Staind, “It’s been a while…” You don’t need to spend a ton of time on social media to know that it sure sounds like a JT Miller trade is back on the menu.

Following Vancouver's decisive 5-1 loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday, head coach Rick Tocchet voiced some frustration with star forward J.T. Miller's game. "He's struggling. He's caught in between. Seems like every time he's on the ice, something bad happens," Tocchet told reporters in the post-game press conference.
