For myself personally, I’m going to temper my expectations on Huberdeau who won’t be playing the same style of hockey as he did in Florida. That was a run and gun team offense all the time style which is just about the opposite from the type of game Darryl generally tries to deploy.

The Panthers were 1st in xGF60 in all situations.
The Flames were 4th
This isn't penthouse to the outhouse for Huberdeau ... so no I wouldn't say opposite.
Caveat being Gaudreau and Tkachuk out, Huberdeau in, forwards a step back, Weeger making the D more offensive and transitional.
