February 26, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

New Jersey Devils star Jack Hughes returned to the ice Wednesday following the Winter Olympics, receiving a massive ovation from the Prudential Center crowd.

Jack Hughes celebrated with former Olympic teammate Tage Thompson, who skated around the ice to chants of 'USA' following their gold medal. Before the puck dropped, Governor Mikie Sherrill presented Hughes with a New Jersey flag.

The Devils are now looking to claw back into playoff contention as the regular season winds down.
