Sorry, but Johnny and Huberdeau are two completely different players one brings people out of his seats even when the team was struggling.

Yup, not even a remotely close comparison. Huberdeau hasn't shown an ounce of what Johnny was able to do in Flames silks. Johnny at his worst still looked like a top line player. And he was able to have one of his best seasons under the mean coach.
Heck all you have to do is watch Lindholm and Huberdeau right now and they are on different planets in terms of who looks like a legit top line forward.
Huberdeau hasn't shown us anything as Flames fans. The concern is more than warranted.
