During the off-season, when many guys are understandably itching for a break from the game, Jonathan Huberdeau skates with multiple summer league squads in the Montreal area.Except that, during his first campaign with the Calgary Flames, that wasn’t always the case.
More pop on the power-play. More impact during three-on-three overtime. More shots on net, which should open up more passing lanes for this ace playmaker. It didn’t go unnoticed that during Thursday’s first practice at the Saddledome, Huberdeau attempted a couple of spin-o-ramas, telling reporters afterwards with a wide grin, “I might bring ’em back this year.” Darryl Sutter would not have approved.
“This year, it’s like, ‘Hey, if you know you have confidence, you’re positive, it’s going to work.’ ” “A coach helps by putting him in situations where he feels like he can help the team win,” Huska said of Huberdeau. “What I look for is a guy who is playing with some pace and when he’s making his passes or plays, he’s completing most of them. When you see a player doing that, you know that he is feeling really good about himself and his game and that will allow us to put him in situations where he can have a more direct impact on the game.
