Sutter has played him with 85% of the forwards on the team and every time Huberdeau doesn’t produce with guys it’s Sutter’s fault for playing him with those guys. I’ll ask again: what exactly does Huberdeau need to figure it out? Should we go out and trade players until we get ones he likes? Or cycle through coaches until we find one he likes? He’s not McDavid.

Not sure about this...he has played with mostly the same few guys. Also, its not like anyone else is having a good season
