I think your answer is wrong. We have seen new coaches come in and it takes time to adjust to their system especially if they are going to a different style. I think we need to see where the team is at 20 games in next year. Ultimately we will see where Huberdeau ends his season next year but throwing shade and hate on him if he is not lighting the world on fire before Halloween is premature.

Sutter tried to smash a square peg in a round hole with Huberdeau and ruined him in the process. Every move the Flames have made in the offseason since should be building blocks in getting his confidence back to the proper level. I think he will be a better player next year no doubt but it might take a little time
