He probably wouldn't be signing with us after a season like this - leaving the team with 3 superstars bailing on the organization in 2 years. The team/organization couldn't do that.
So we'd either be trading him at the deadline, or losing him for nothing...and the Flames weren't rebuilding after Florida put their offer on the table. Maybe they should have, but they weren't...so, this it.
I still think Huberdeau is an elite player. He's just here...on this team, with this structure and it's not working. That's a Flames problem.
