Toffoli isn't fast but it doesn't really seem like Huberdeau's game revolves around beating guys with speed. I haven't noticed his line mates struggling to keep up.

I understand that he was very successful with Bennett and Duclaire last season, but is that because they were fast?
Remember last year how Tkachuk utilized Johnnys speed very effectively, I think of Huberdeau as a similar type of player. It is not that Huberdeau relies on speed to get past opponents, it is that he can utilize faster players better than others can
