Sure it wouldn't be selling high by ridding ourselves this off-season, but the downside is significant if they hold those assets the way they're trending.
But why would Montreal pull the trigger this offseason and completely blow up their cap structure on a potential bounce back and also give up good value while doing so. Huberdeau would probably get a 8-9 million dollar contract this offseason if he was UFA.
