I no longer have an athletic subscription so I can't validate this, but I highly doubt that's what Dom did. He probably has a multiple season tracking system that then speculates based on trajectory. He can't just throw out the outlier last year, because that's important data for trajectory. His stat set does not show Huberdeau improving based on historical references. Could Huby buck the trend? Sure. Dom even says he's the most likely to buck the trend. But the data shows that he is unlikely to, and likely to have a bad contract.
That's the correct conclusion. Some of you live in dream land.
