Huberdeau had 23 power play points last year. Assuming his goal share increases to the levels you want, that's only 2-3 more points on goal share.
The only way to push it higher is to score a lot more power play goals than we did last year, and I don't see the Flames scoring at a 28-30% clip, which is what it would take to make up the points you're claiming Parekh would contribute to Huberdeaus point totals.

It can be more than 9-10%. Some of the top PP forwards in PP points were on the ice for 85% or higher. Some of these players also played on teams that scored 10 to 20 more PP goals than the Flames did.
Huberdeau used to get 35ish PP points a year (last 4 years in Florida).
PP alone isn't unreasonable to say with Parekh on a true PP1 with increased minutes and increased production that Huberdeau could get 30 PP points next year. 7 points for just the PP puts him at 69 points. It's not possible to get 6 more 5 EV points. his best EV point total with the Flames is 40, he had 35 last year.
Over 20 forwards had 29 PP points last year. 30 is good, but not unrealistic.
