Seeing a lot of “trading Nico for X player only makes sense if they’re trying to make Jack happy because X player and Jack are friends” and thinking…do people not know Jack and Nico are great friends? I feel like people don’t know Jack and Nico are great friends.
even if you take the ship lens off for a moment, there's no denying that these two are actually friends.
you don't need to ship them, but saying they aren't friends is patently ridiculous.
shall we get to the evidence?
going to a concert together
Jim Hughes once said, "Jack has a relationship with Nico. They're like this (clasps his hands together right), they're like brothers. And they look out for one another"
Nico Hischier once said, "I mean, obviously, with Jack like you said, we bonded very well. I've been playing with him a few years. We got...we are friends. We got to know each other well, and we're very good friends right now."
Jack Hughes once said, "It's been fun to become really good buddies with him (Nico Hischier), have his experiences, and be a similar age with him, so that was pretty big and pretty fun for me."
Nico Hischier also said, "Me and Jack are great friends. I think we're doing well on the ice, off the ice. I'm always having his back. I'm always there for him and I know he's doing the same for me, so I think there's a big trust between us, between each other."
Nico Hischier also, also said, "If you met him you know how he is. He's Jack. I like that about him, he doesn't [do] acting or stuff like that. He's just Jack. Really funny guy to be around with, and obviously, throughout the years I've got a good friendship with him, and that's always fun."
and Jack being so very silly during the NHL Awards in 2023, pretending to take pictures of Nico
this is all off ice stuff. no game stuff, not even teammate stuff. just them being friends and being loud about being friends.
