The problem with Huberdeau is the AAV. If he ends up getting 50 points per season on the back couple of years of his contract he'll be untradeable, and if he's still munching 10% of the cap it'll hurt the Flames chances of building a good team for a couple of years.

That’s a problem for 7-8 years from now - what matters is the next 4-6. You’re not gambling that Huberdeau’s gonna be your franchise player in years 6, 7 and 8.
They’re all in for right now.
