How are the Flames going to land some other elite player just to get Huberdeau going? And why aren't other good players like Lindholm or Kadri good enough to get him going? Who is the magical player out there that is the perect fit for him? You don't pay guys 10.5M to have to go looking for other guys to get them going. At that level of investment, he should be producing based on the skillset that everyone presumed he has, regardless of system or chemistry issues.
