Prior to joining the Calgary Flames before the 2022-23 season Jonathan Huberdeau was coming off a five-year run where he was one of the top-five offensive players in hockey.
An elite scorer and point producer who had played his way into MVP discussions and was a focal point for the Florida Panthers and a perfect fit in their up-tempo style of play.
But with the Flames unable to re-sign Matthew Tkachuk, they traded him to Florida in a blockbuster deal that sent Huberdeau to Western Canada where he would eventually sign an eight-year, $84 million contract.
Just one year into that deal it is already looking like one of the worst contracts in the NHL as Huberdeau has produced a fraction of his previous rate from the Panthers and struggled to fit in with Calgary's style of play under two different head coaches.
