I think part of Huberdeau’s problem is he is deferring to his centres / line mates too much. Needs to play with the puck on his stick and he’s just not demanding the puck
That’s more of a by product of Huberdeau having a weak stick. That was one of the shocking things I remember seeing when I checked out some of his Florida games post-trade. He’s easily checked off pucks which is why he’s not the break out guy on the powerplay which means Kadri has to and I’m not sure if that’s his specialty.

I think everyone thought Huberdeau was going to be a Gaudreau clone because they both had 115 points, but their styles are very different. It appears Darryl will have to find the right mix that works for Huberdeau rather than other way around because I don’t think Huberdeau’s the type of player who is going to take the bull by the horns and put the team on his back. Kadri was that guy for a couple of weeks, but even he wasn’t going to be able to sustain that.
