So I don't think it's as simple as just digging deep.

He has a mental block, he has chemistry issues, or he's lost it.
I'm not questioning his fitness, or his dedication to his craft. In order to get 115P you need to put in the work. I just don't see that killer resolve from him, like you see in champions like Crosby, McKinnon, MJ, and Kobe.

I can't explain it. It's a drive to win. Every single person loves winning, but only a few dedicate their entire life to it, and really hate losing.

I don't see the same compete/dedication from Huberdeau like I saw from Iginla. I'm sure he's still competing and he's still dedicated, but he doesn't look like he wants/tries to win to the same degree.

I don't want Huberdeau sad after being benched, nor do I want to see him smiling the next day. I want him angry, and motivated to take over the next game.
