#### like this makes me feel bad for Huberdeau.
He's not the one that asked for a trade. There is also a reason it was Huberdeau, Weegar, Schwindt and a 1st and not just a 1 for 1 trade.
Tkachuk was the better player, younger with more upside, and the trade reflected that.

Actions speak louder than words...especially with Tkachuk. He bolted the first chance he got and I've heard from former teammates that he says whatever makes him look good in the media.
Hell at his season end press conference he said he wanted to sign long term and then asked for a trade a couple weeks later.
It's all lip service to make himself look good.
