Sometimes I start to feel sorry for him as he's obviously a proud guy. Then I remember he's being paid 84 million dollars.

This is why I don’t think this setup is going to run the full course. Neither side is going to want to do this for 8 seasons. I think the Flames will eat some of his contract to move him out. Huberdeau won’t want to be a pariah for the better part of a decade.
