Huberdeau soft/not 200 ft player and disappears in playoffs. Also won't sign for less than 10.5 per year.
Weegar prone to terrible gaffes. Overrated.
Majority of Panther fans like the deal for Panthers given player control through prime.
Be interesting if both moved this off-season or they let Sutter have a go at them to see what they could be.
BT should keep wheeling and dealing. Its his best skill. Hamonic trade aside.
But suspect both will be in camp and will run with them for at least part of regular season.

I think the book on Huberdeau is that he is soft, but I don’t agree with that. Anytime I have watched him, I was surprised that he actually has a bit of an edge to him. I don’t think he is nearly as soft as people think.
The disappearing in the playoffs thing is a little off too. He didn’t have a great playoffs this year, with 1 goal and 5 points in 10 games. The year before though he had 10 points in 6 games, and has 21 points in 26 playoff games for his career. So I don’t know that the whole disappearing in the playoffs thing is entirely fair either.
