Had Jimmy Fallon in stitches
The Hughes brothers talked about winning gold, and Fallon asked about Jack’s missing front tooth, which he lost during the gold medal game.
“I remember Quinn—he was the first guy, closest to me. I remember him coming up to me at the TV timeout. He’s like, ‘It’s not that bad, it’s only chipped,’” Jack recalled.
“I feel like this might be your thing. Are you getting used to having a hole in your mouth?” Fallon asked.
Jack Hughes sent Fallon into laughter with his response.
“I can promise you this won’t be my thing,” he said.
