The average distance from the net on his goals is about 2 feet. Seriously. Every goal.

Force and Steel tied at a game apiece. This was in game one.

Huglen suffered a back injury, and it took him out for almost two full years to recover. To have complications like that at 18 and 19 years old is heartbreaking, and there were serious questions if he could return to his previous form. On Jan. 4th of this year, he returned to play for the Fargo Force of the USHL and has scored five goals and 10 points in 11 games since. This is a story of a person that never gave up.

I will dive into Huglen’s journey since being drafted, explain his recovery process and why he has NHL potential in the future. Everybody is rooting for this kid to succeed. Let’s talk about why.

His Recovery From The Back Injury

In an article with Ryan Kennedy of The Hockey News, Hughlen opened up about how the injury occurred.

“I was doing a lift, and I felt my back slip as I was doing it,” Huglen said. “Right away, I didn’t realize the severity of it — I thought it was just a pulled muscle in my back.” (from “Buffalo Pick Returns After 20-Month Odyssey” – The Hockey News – 01/21/21)

Eric Portillo will be taking over as starting GT for Michigan. There was some concern that Strauss would stay for his senior year limiting the number of games Portillo started.

Richard Strauss.  SwampD's pun was on the name Strauss referred to the composer Johann Strauss, "The Waltz King".  My reply referred to the unrelated composer Richard Strauss, who wrote the Tone Poem Also Sprach Zarathustra.

I understood the reference, but was giving a Sabres context. 😎
