There was a big difference in Walsh's tweet on Friday VS his previous tweets that is being overlooked IMO.

With Frolik and Fleury - Walsh always specifically would name his player and call out the specific grievance. With Frolik it was playing time, with Fleury it was more loyalty.

Walsh didn't really specifically name Huberdeau in this one - which makes me think it could have been a bit different.

I have no doubt Walsh and Huberdeau have likely had tough discussions about the system, lack of adjustments, and the overall negativity around the team (Sutter has some blame but think Tre has been pretty negative this year too).

I also don't think that Huberdeau instructed Walsh to send that tweet about 17 minutes after the game.
