I still don't see it. Would you take Huberdeau right now if he was making 7.5 million? With Gaudreau, at least Colombus has seen him produce with them last year so they can expect him to bounce back. But Huberdeau hasn't shown anything now for a second straight year. He at least has to have some kind of bounce back before anyone would even consider trading for him. Even then you would have to retain a lot and teams would want to send equal amount of money and length back or make you pay for whatever the difference in contracts are.
