I assume he means instead of Huberdeau. It’s a tough comparison since I think both have their pros and cons. I think the biggest thing that Gaudreau would give the flames now is a puck carrier for the top line. Lindholm is struggling with it and Huberdeau really doesn’t have that as a strength.
But I think Huberdeau has some advantages too. I think our PP is better with him instead of Johnny. Also Johnny had issues with his game scaling to playoff time. Sure he could do button hooks all day long against crap teams but against top teams we see what the predictably of his game and his lack of size cost him. We will have to see if Huberdeau is capable of doing things Johnny couldn’t do because of his lack of size.
