Highly doubt Quinn will get any consideration for this team. Of course Luke could, but top pair is a huge long shot.

Quinn Hughes will be considered for the 2022's team so of course he will be considered (and likely selected) for 2026.

I don’t think he’ll get any real consideration for the 2022 team. If fox is on the team, he’ll be taking top PP duties. If Hughes isn’t getting top PP duties, he’s a below average defensemen, and thus there are about 30 guys ahead of him.

I'd love that top line and the reunion of the 2019 USNTDP boys. Zegras is better at Center but I think he'd be good on Jack's Wing.

Likely (3): Fox, McAvoy, Werenski
Maybe (5): Jones, Carlson, Slavin, Hanifin, Dumoulin
Possible (6): Krug, Suter, Petry, Pesce, Martinez, McDonagh
Doubtful (18): Faulk, Fowler, Carlo, Sanderson, Yandle, Murphy, Shattenkirk, Leddy, York, Pionk, Marino, Grzelcyk, Holl, Skjei, Mayfield, DeAngelo, McCabe, Miller
If he switches (1): Chychrun

Hughes would have to be among the latter end of the 'doubtfuls'

Realistically he's in the "possible" category. You can also put Dumoulin in the doubtful.
