Quinn Hughes's praise for Jack

S. took down Canada in the Olympic gold-medal game, Quinn spoke highly of Jack, calling out detractors in a charged post-game interview and defending his brother's journey back from injury.
Details of the golden goal
Jack Hughes scored the overtime winner against Canada to secure the Olympic gold-medal game victory. That goal capped a tournament in which he finished with seven points — four goals and three assists — in six games. His earlier goal against Slovakia in the second period of the semifinal served as the game-winner that put the U. S. through to the final.
Injuries and surgeries timeline
The account notes Jack is a 24-year-old who has faced significant injury trouble over recent seasons. He missed 20 games last year and was unable to suit up for the New Jersey Devils in the playoffs after a season-ending shoulder injury. Across his seven-year NHL career, Jack has undergone two separate shoulder surgeries.
Tournament form and prior struggles
Prior to the Olympics, Jack struggled at the 4 Nations Face-Off, where he managed only one assist through four games.

" He added, "For him to just persevere and keep believing and just keep going no matter what happens — he's a special guy, special player. " Michael Russo relayed aspects of that post-game exchange.
Quinn also told Jackie Redmond, "People have no idea how hard this journey has been for him, dealing with injuries and battling through so much to be the player he is. I mean, he loves this game more than anyone. He's one of the best players in the world, and I'm so glad everyone got to see why today.
