Calgary Flames winger Jonathan Huberdeau is experiencing a resurgence halfway through the NHL season, leading his team with 17 goals, which surpasses his previous two seasons' totals combined since being traded from the Florida Panthers. The 31-year-old has adapted to the Flames' system, contributing significantly on both ends of the ice and embracing his defensive role despite the team’s low-scoring situation.
Huberdeau's development has coincided with rookie goalie Dustin Wolf's impressive performance, placing him in Calder Trophy discussions as Calgary fights for a playoff position. The Flames are currently just below the playoff cutline in the Western Conference.
