I was one year early when I bet Jack Hughes to win the Hart Trophy at +4000 at @FanDuelCanada last season. I might have been right on time betting him at +2100 to win the Hart this summer. He's averaged an NHL-best 2.8 points per game through five games. #NJDevils #GamblingX https://t.co/yXoll3ziUI
