It wasn't like he gave it away. The puck comes around to the wing, Gudbranson gets a stick on it, and somehow CBJ outnumbers Huberdeau 3-1 on that side of the ice even though we have a PP. Lindholm, Kadri, and Sharangovich all standing still and don't move their feet at all even though we don't have possession.

And he was the only one that even really attempted to get back, Sharangovich should have been dropping back to support but didn't when we didn't have possession and still didn't hustle back as hard as Huberdeau did.

Easy to blame him on that play since he was closest to the puck but he was the only Flame on the ice that actually tried on that play.
If you watch it again, the forwards who were down low actually go to make a line change. It was an abysmal effort to backcheck. That ain't on Huberdeau.
