Seravalli: Quelqu’un peut-il comprendre pourquoi un meneur de jeu de 84 millions de dollars est agrafé au banc des #Flames avec 20 secondes à jouer dans un match à un but avec une saison en jeu?
Can anyone make sense of why an $84 million playmaker is stapled to #Flames bench with 20 secs to play in one-goal game with season on the line?

Because Lucic
I need a fucking drink
Because he has the fifth most points of any forward on the team
Part of that is his own doing, part of that probably is the coaching staff
If you actually think that $84 million playmaker was going to make a difference in that 20 seconds, you are absolutely out of your fucking mind.
I remember when Torts wanted the Sedins to become shot blockers. Is this a similar situation playing out in Calgary?
Same reason the young kid he had decent chemistry with is in the minors. Just Darryl Things.
He needs to play with Dillon and Walker
The HubeyDubeDu Line
Because you need Stanley cup pedigree on the ice when the game is on the line. Has Huberdeau ever won a cup?, I don’t think so. My boy Lucic could steer wrestle a herd of Bison with his eyes closed… that’s the kind of guy I want on the ice when it matters most… – Darryl
yeah like what was going on, when we first pulled markstrom and there were 2 minutes remaining trevor lewis was on the ice
Because his confidence his shattered. He isn’t adjusting well and the coach doesn’t believe that he plays the proper way.
Even if he makes 84 assists, that’s a lot of money per assist. Something is wrong with the nhl.
Also, the $84M contract starts NEXT season. He makes the same money as Mang this year.
To make room for Lucic of course
I dunno ask Sutter
Looooochhhhhhhhh
Old time hockey lol
Can anyone point to anything Huberdeau has done this season to warrant him being out for the 20 seconds?
I can make sense of it…. he has been at best the 6th best forward on the roster this year.
He has been TERRIBLE. Why does he deserve to be out there? What has he shown this year? We have ZERO 3rd period comebacks.
It is not how much a player makes, it is how much difference a player makes.
Huberdeau will save the day. He’s been doing it all season /s
I’m guessing because he’s playing like an ass and is more likely to turn over the puck than score.
Genuinely funny to see Sutter troll the whole NHL.
Blind back hand saucers to the opposition don’t win games, regardless if you’re an 84$M player NEXT YEAR
