Leaked trailer suggests Hughes brothers could be cover athletes for EA Sports NHL 25
EA Sports might feature the Hughes brothers in NHL 25. A leaked trailer showed Vancouver Canucks captain Quinn Hughes with his brothers, Jack and Luke.
The video was briefly on EA Sports NHL’s YouTube channel before it was removed. That has led to speculation that the Hughes trio could be the game’s cover athletes.
The trailer featured Quinn Hughes, who won the Norris Trophy last season, wearing the Canucks’ “Black Skate” jersey.
His brothers, Jack Hughes, a top forward and former first overall pick, and Luke Hughes, a Calder Trophy nominee, also appeared. The video showed gameplay footage and clips of the Hughes brothers, suggesting they could play a major role in the game.
The quickremoval of the trailer has led to questions about its authenticity and whether the Hughes brothers will be on the cover. EA Sports hasn't yet confirmed the release date or cover athletes for NHL 25, but the trailer suggests the Hughes siblings might be central to the game's marketing.
In the past, several Canucks players have appeared on the cover of EA Sports’ NHL games. That includes Kirk McLean, Markus Naslund, the Sedin twins and Elias Pettersson. The Hughes brothers could join the illustrious list.
