Memory lane.

Johnny Gaudreau stats today

32 games
17 points (5 goals)
-16 +/-

Huberdeau

31 games
15 points (4 goals)
-14 +/-


Morale of the story… giant contracts for players after a record year is a fools game.

Contracts should be a base amount followed by set bonuses. Perform for pay.

Otherwise it just looks like these guys have no ethics and are cashing out and hoping for an early retirement.

Assuming no injuries of course.

In a perfect world we should have traded away Huberdeau’s signing rights and started a team rebuild.

We are playing better these days but not thanks to Huberdeau. 3 Zary’s would have been a smash.
