Players have bad years, I would rather use an 8 year sample with Huberdeau rather than 40 game sample.
An easy example of his skills not being utilized is his east-west passing ability. Players need to be placed on the pp so that Hub can feed them one timers, but it is not right now. How many times has he made an amazing pass on the powerplay through 3-4 guys and Flames player not being ready to one time the puck. The pp is not structured to use his skills, it is built around "all of you are not skilled enough so just get the puck to the net".

And how many times has he made that same pass and coughed up the puck?
