I always find it amusing when fans can have a definite evaluation of a player's character from what they can see from row 23, or their couch, without ever having me the guy.

Huberdeau has entered the zone where the bar for him is set so low, almost everything is a positive.
I have no clue how great he is for the environment around the team but I would certainly hope he is a better leader than a young Johnny Gaudreau.
That is an insanely low bar.
Would you rather have Gaudreau or Huberdeau at 8x$10.5? Neither is a very appealing choice. I find Gaudreau more entertaining to watch so I probably lean that way and I think his effort level gets underrated by many around here whereas Huberdeau's is overrated.
