Quinn Hughes has now broken the record in an astonishing 387 games.
Beyond breaking this record Quinn Hughes has been overall one of the best defensemen in the NHL over his career in all areas of the game.

With the help of Quinn Hughes the Canucks were able to take down the Detroit Red Wings in overtime with a hat trick goal from Jake DeBrusk.
Quinn Hughes becomes the first of the three brothers to break a franchise all-time record in their careers.
