Also, there has to be at least some chance that Huberdeau could bounce back to a point per game player in a new situation. If they don't think this is possible, then yeah, not much chance of this happening.

As for Pelletier, I would hope that one of the Flames top prospects, who they drafted with a first round pick and has now developed into an NHL ready player, would be worth a first two years from now.
Doubtful
Most teams will prefer a first over a guy drafted late in the first unless that player is blue chip. Pelletier is not.
