Calgary Flames winger Jonathan Huberdeau is enjoying a resurgence this season, leading the team with 17 goals at the halfway point. This marks an improvement compared to his production over the last two seasons following his trade from the Florida Panthers. Huberdeau has found a new sense of responsibility, contributing defensively while maintaining his offensive output.
The Flames are in playoff contention, sitting just below the cutline in a tightly contested Western Conference. Huberdeau credits his increased ice time and involvement in defensive plays as key factors in his performance. He acknowledges the Flames' struggles with penalties and scoring but believes in the team's resilience.
