Summary

Jonathan Huberdeau’s eight-year, $84 million contract has landed him on the NHL’s worst deals list — a stark contrast to his former team’s Stanley Cup glory. Traded from Florida to Calgary in 2022 for Matthew Tkachuk, Huberdeau hasn’t matched his scoring output or the Flames’ playoff drought. But with hip resurfacing surgery behind him and GM Craig Conroy reporting he’s pain-free and back on the ice, there’s cautious optimism Huberdeau can reclaim his form — and maybe even justify the hefty price tag.
