Yeah johnny was bad defensively for most of his career if we're being honest. Last year with sutter yelling at him was the first year I saw him backcheck hard. And even then it's not like he was killing penalties or doing anything other than hiding in physical games. Very very good offensive player when he has space, probably 2nd best in the league in that niche but not exactly an all around stud
Huberdeau was 1st pk unit in Florida. I'd say at worst he is his equal and I actually think huberdeau is better
1st line lw is fine, challenge for the flames is all about finding a rw for that top line.
