Guessing Huberdeau is roughly a $7M player based on recent production, maybe $7.5. Add in some special teams work and the leadership stuff and lets make it $8M.
So -$2.5M
Where is that vs say James Neal when he was here? $5.75M cap hit and what -$4M in value?
Where is Sharangovich now in value? Guessing worse than Huberdeau as a differential.

Sharangovich is worse value today even though I don't think Huby is an $8 million player. If I could pick one player today to lose, it would be Yegor.
Huberdeau will become a greater problem once he is blocking someone in the top 6. At least Shargovich can be sat and it doesn't create much of a stir (which is part of his problem). Might be harder with Huberdeau.
Neal was never a $4 million player for the Flames. He did nothing for this team but take up space.
