I mean you are just wrong about Huberdeau. He wasn’t a middle six guy in Florida. Until he was traded to the Flames he was getting more primary assists and wasn’t relying on a stacked power play to get the majority of his points. He was basically a ppg guy until his first season here. Jeff Skinner might be who you are thinking of.
Which honestly makes his drop off even more confusing and impressive. I don’t think there has even been such a drop off in the cap era.
