If Skinner could find his game and have an 82 point season after only putting up 14 points in the 2020-21 season, then so can Huberdeau. The skill is there, he finds his teammates with awesome passes, but he needs movement on his line to create chaos, as well as finishing ability.
If I had the option, I would give a guy like Duclair, or Vrana on an expiring contract a tryout next to Hubby. If they have chemistry, and help Huberdeau, then great, sign them to an extension. On the other hand, if they don't, you only lost minimal assets and don't have to re-sign them.
