I don't think there's any chance for trading Huberdeau, even if he does bounce back to being a PPG guy.
Jeff Skinner is the comparison I'd use. He got his payday for a one-off 40-goal season, collapsed, and then bounced back and even surpassed the point productuion of that 40-goal season and there was still no biters on him.
Huberdeau is a $10.5M anchor attached to heel of this organization. The best they can hope for is that into the later parts of the career, he's still able to produce his 50'ish points.
