I mean, the Canucks bought out OEL because there was no way he could be traded without the team giving up multiple high-grade assets.
A Huberdeau buyout would be a lot nastier but if the Flames feel like there's no trade option then that's an angle they'll have to explore. Easier to just sandbag and ride the bus in the AHL if it comes down to it then to try to keep up with the NHL level of play, Hubs has a retirement contract anyways.
Oh man there is no trade option. No GM touches his contract right now.
Full no move, 0.5 years into a 7 year deal, he ain’t going nowhere.
He’s just a head case sadly. Needs some confidence. When he got benched in the 3rd period last month he sat and openly cried on the bench during the game. Who does that.
