Per Hockey Insider Elliotte Friedman Calgary Flames GM Brad Treliving and newly acquired Jonathan Huberdeau had a «get-to-know-you» dinner tonight in Montreal. The two wanted to meet in person, and made it happen. The dinner was intended to set the table for possible contract negotiations.
Its been over a week since the biggest trade of the offseason went down. The Florida Panthers acquired Matthew Tkachuk and a conditional draft pick from the Calgary Flames for Jonathan Huberdeau, MacKenzie Weegar, Cole Schwindt and a 1st round pick in 2025.
Huberdeau wore No. 11 throughout his entire 10-year career with the Panthers and also in junior with the Saint John Sea Dogs in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, but was forced to swap after the trade because Mikael Backlund has worn the digits since 2010.
