Steve Valiquette Was Critical of Jack Hughes' Game...Was He Trying to Embarrass Igor Shesterkin?

The New Jersey Devils won their most recent game against the New York Rangers 5-1. Jack Hughes finished with two goals and Jacob Markstrom was phenomenal in between the pipes. However, Rangers broadcaster Steve Valiquette made some controversial comments regarding Hughes and his overall game. He said Hughes purposely tried to embarrass Igor Shesterkin on one particular play and demonstrated more "Instagram hockey".
