Jack\u2019s brother, Quinn, was also in the photo. But he was cropped out of the version the Devils shared.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"7MUFISANABDATF33EKDCPVJ6JQ\">The altered image <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/LockedOnDevils\/status\/2020945715057627611?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" title=\"https:\/\/x.com\/LockedOnDevils\/status\/2020945715057627611?s=20\">has taken social media by storm<\/a>, with Devils fans \u2014 and NHL observers \u2014 puzzled about why they did and just how awkward the cropped photo is.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"AQSAGNFNPJDURH4CFPKGCFPZGI\">Earlier this season, the Devils <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nj.com\/devils\/2025\/12\/is-quinn-hughes-to-devils-inevitable-we-asked-his-former-coaches.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.nj.com\/devils\/2025\/12\/is-quinn-hughes-to-devils-inevitable-we-asked-his-former-coaches.html\">were reportedly in trade talks with the Vancouver Canucks to acquire Quinn<\/a>, who has expressed interest in playing with both of his younger brothers, Jack and Luke. But the Devils never got the deal done, Quinn was traded to the Minnesota Wild and the Devils season has fallen apart (they\u2019ll return from the Olympic break 11 points out of a playoff spot).<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"BNCTUMB67ZFJFASQ2QR2S2VL74\">Quinn will be an unrestricted free agent in 2028 if he doesn\u2019t sign an extension with the Wild. Jack\u2019s contract expires in 2030 and Luke <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nj.com\/devils\/2025\/10\/devils-finally-extend-prized-defenseman-contract-details-what-it-means-more.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.nj.com\/devils\/2025\/10\/devils-finally-extend-prized-defenseman-contract-details-what-it-means-more.html\">signed a seven-year, $63 million deal<\/a> with the Devils before this season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"article__paragraph article__paragraph--left\" id=\"5FNDTEXXSBBHDJJCGS3AAHFJAM\">Jack has missed time this season with two injuries (including the Devils\u2019 final three games before the Olympic break). Luke missed the final two weeks before the break with a shoulder injury, but it expected to return when the team resumes play on Feb. 25.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Devils on Monday posted a photo celebrating their star, Jack Hughes, in his team USA uniform, alongside&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":459845,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[66],"tags":[385,99],"class_list":["post-459844","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/459844","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=459844"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/459844\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/459845"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=459844"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=459844"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=459844"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
