Once again, the Flames should be trying to find 2 great finishers for Huberdeau. Huberdeau's proven he can put up big numbers playing with players that are otherwise not so great but can simply put the puck in the net.
Huberdeau needs a puck carrier to gain the zone. Unless Sutter is willing to put him with Kadri, the only other option that can competently and consistently do that at a high-level is Backlund. Sub Coleman with someone else (perhaps Mangiapane), but otherwise, Huberdeau with Backlund is perfectly fine.
