In the film, which centers on the U.S. men’s ice hockey team in the 1980 Winter Olympics, a player is named Jack Hughes.
New Jersey Devils' Jack Hughes was one of three members of his family who are now Olympic hockey champions to appear on the morning show circuit.
Jack Hughes went viral after scoring the winning goal for Team USA at the 2026 Olympics, and for losing a couple of teeth during the victory. The photo of his wide gap-filled smile has quickly become iconic,
The Devils sure could use Hughes. They sit 11 points out of a playoff spot and have a 2.4% chance to make the playoffs, according to Money Puck. Hughes missed the three games leading up to the Olympic break with a groin injury, but he’s clearly back to 100% after a strong tournament.
His goal came after he lost some teeth when he was hit in the face by a stick from Canada’s Sam Bennett in the third period. He said the first person to reach him after the injury was none other than his brother and Team USA teammate, Quinn Hughes.
Quinn Hughes, who plays for the NHL hockey team Minnesota Wild, confirmed his and his brother's State of the Union appearance on ABC's "Good Morning America" today.
Quinn Hughes clapped back at his brother's haters after Jack Hughes scored the game-winning goal in Team USA's gold medal win.
Team USA hockey star Jack Hughes is turning heads with a recent photo that has surfaced after the Olympics.
