It’s an interesting contrast in hockey markets and lifestyle.
Both Johnny and Matthew left a hockey mad Canadian market. Huberdeau has spent his entire career in South Florida. Johnny is starting a family, and reading between the lines, it sounds like Matthew is maybe looking to “grow up” a bit as well, recognizing that there is more to life than hockey. Where is Huberdeau at and what does he want at this point of his life and career?
There are worse Canadian markets out there IMO; if he wants the pressure to perform and the spoils that go with it, I think Calgary might be a fit.
Weegar will be looking for a big payday so I think he’d be more willing to stay if the numbers make sense.
