Edit - maybe I read that wrong at the 346 in 248 includes the 115 season but the point remains the same; Huberdeau is a lot closer to being a 115 pt than he is to being a 55 pt player, he hasn’t even started his new contract yet lol. Did the forum not learn their lesson from Johnny?? Remember when everyone wanted to see him traded for Konecny and then he put up 115 points? Gotta give Huby at least another season if not 2 before we start talking in absolutes.

Yes so even just using his point average per game not what he actually produced he still doesn't average out to be the 115 point player. People use that number when criticizing Sutter because it sounds better not because it represents what we should expect from Hubredeau going forward.I don't expect him to get 55 points next season either but if the standard is an outlier season when people use 115 to make their point than why not use 55?
I think even expecting 99 points or close to it is hopeful for a player that is 28 and only once score above 99 points and only once got close to it.
