Now Huberdeau could hit 70-80 points next season, but the odds are likely against it. Players who get 80 points are generally on pretty high scoring teams, and that's not likely Calgary.
If he's a good teammate, plays a solid game and hits 70 points, I would consider that a huge win. And the first two are likely in the bag.

No one has said that. Hence "straw man". All people have said is that "if" he can clean up his dry months, he can have improved production. Which is a pretty logical claim. The reference to his good months is merely to show he's still capable of that kind of production. Because he's done it.
