Jack Hughes was honored by the New Jersey Devils before their game against the Buffalo Sabres after scoring the overtime goal that secured the U.S. gold medal in men’s hockey at the 2026 Olympics. Despite losing teeth during the final against Canada, Hughes expressed pride in representing the Devils and New Jersey. His return coincided with recognition from President Trump at the State of the Union. A local deli even named a sandwich after him, humorously highlighting his toothless condition.
