Keep him around for 4 years while you are rebuilding, then, if you need the cap after you’ve developed the youth, buyouts or retained salaries are way easier to swallow.

I think most people who want a rebuild want it because Huberdeau isn't working out and there is no other viable plan if he isn't living up to his contract. I doubt anyone would be upset if Huberdeau was a PPG player and the team was doing well because of it.
