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.

That is not how he wrote it. He said he want’s everything to happen + keep Johnny which is pretty much impossible without another huge subtraction. I guess they could have dumped futures to move Lucic and likely could have easily obtained futures and not sign Mangiapane? Extending Huberdeau and Weegar would have been next to impossible as well so it is a dream scenario.
