I think fans need to stop blaming players for their contracts. Huberdeau’s contract looks like dogshit now but it’s not his fault. I don’t think he is struggling due to lack of effort or desire, it is more a square peg and round hole problem. Cheer for him to become an important player, the way you would for any other player with potential.

Maybe we as fans have to get up and do something similar after keeping him in the spotlight like this

I like it. He needs some confidence. Next home game is Nov 16 vs Vancouver.

Lmao huberdeau isn’t that guy. Bite the bullet and get whatever you can out of him in a trade. Coaching change, linemate change and still nothing. What’s the definition of insanity again?

We should turn him into a baseball player? Good idea! Are the cannons still around?

It’s like kadri said earlier this year, you don’t stay in this league if you don’t work hard. Nobody is out there just dogging it all the time in practice and games and sticking around.
Obviously he’s going to take the biggest contract he’s ever been offered after getting dicked over by the only pro franchise he’d ever played for and there’s literally nothing any of us including him can do about that contract…
So let’s show him some love and what Canadian fans *can be* in the C of Red boys and gals 🔥, give him some support from the fans rather than continuing down a surefire path to all the negativity becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy

Hell I might just drive 5 hours to come to the next home game with a sign and try to get it going myself

Honestly, this would be amazing. Really hope the fans at the Dome can give him a strong reception next game.

I’m all for it. While I appreciate the message sent by Huska for benching him, seeing his reaction was a bit heartbreaking. I’ve said this in the past, but it looks like he was dealt a lot of change in a very short amount of time and just hasn’t been able to adapt. He just looks mentally gone at this point.
The media and fans going out of their way to bury him and the broadcast constantly showing him on the bench while he’s clearly going through it isn’t helping. Yeah he’s a professional athlete being paid a stupid amount of money to play a kid’s game, but he’s human too. I haven’t seen or heard anything that suggests he has character issues, so I think the least we can do as fans is try to support him. Continuing to pile on isn’t going to help anything.

We can’t cheer him into being a superstar lmfao
