[QUOTE=Voodooman;9624880]Did Huberdeau have to waive any sort of movement clause for the trade to happen? My biggest issue with this whole deal was how BT basically met him at the airport in the brinks truck, and signed that horrible extension before Huby had ordered room service at the hotel.
You can't debate that the return for Chucky was great on paper, and I was cautiously optimistic about Huby, but I really didn't like offering that deal to a guy who hadn't played a single minute with your team.
So, was that deal already agreed to in order to get Huby to waive his no-move and come here, or was this just another case of the wizard screwing us with his 4D chess?
What was the harm in waiting a few months to see the fit, and then get into the extension?[/QUOTE]
Agreed, there was no fear that his value would go up. it was the highest it was ever going to be. contract given to Huberdeau by lame duck GM with no contract going forward. brilliant
