Wild GM Bill Guerin admits he has no idea what is going to happen with Quinn Hughes

Following Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Utah Mammoth , they are 9-3-2 through their first 14 games of the season and have one of the NHL's best records. But even with all that success, there is one subplot to this season that is no doubt creating some anxiety for the team and its fans. It is the future of superstar defenseman Quinn Hughes. Hughes, acquired halfway through the 2025-26 season from the Vancouver Canucks , is in the final year of his contract and is set to become an unrestricted free agent after this season.
