I think there is some confusion that some fans are having between current core and future core.
Since the poll question is current core...
Current core has to include Hudler. He is perhaps the most key forward on the Flames on and off the ice. He is looked to by every player in the top 6.
Monahan, Johnny etc, Hudler is who makes it all work.
I am amazed that he was not named an assistant captain to start this season.
