The Vancouver Canucks traded captain and 2024 Norris Trophy winner Quinn Hughes to the Minnesota Wild in a blockbuster deal Friday.

In return for the coveted defenseman, Vancouver will receive center Marco Rossi, defenseman Zeev Buium, forward prospect Liam Ohgren and a 2026 ‍first-round pick.

“We would like to thank Quinn for his time with the Vancouver Canucks,” Canucks president of hockey operations Jim Rutherford said in a statement announcing the deal. “Quinn is a great person, a great player and one of the greatest Canucks of all time. With the circumstances surrounding JT (Miller) and now Quinn, we are fortunate to acquire these very good young players from Minnesota. They will be a key part of the rebuild we ‌are currently in, giving us a bright future moving forward.”
