You probably also know that he will obviously be a free agent next summer.
Many Montreal Canadiens fans and observers are dreaming of Huberdeau signing with the Tricolore.
Also, there is the young center Pierre-Luc Dubois, who has clearly indicated his intention to join the CH as soon as possible.
On this Sunday, we had a little fun imagining what the Montreal Canadiens lineup (the trios) could look like, if they manage to get their hands on Huberdeau AND Dubois.
It's obviously a long way off, but we can hope. We'll say it again: this is just an exercise, for fun.
See the result:
Juraj Slafkovsky - Nick Suzuki - Cole Caufield
Jonathan Huberdeau - Pierre-Luc Dubois - Josh Anderson
Rem Pitlick - Kirby Dach - Brendan Gallagher
Rafael Harvey-Pinard - Jake Evans - Joel Armia
Please note that we have taken into consideration that the contracts of Mike Hoffman, Jonathan Drouin, Evgenii Dadonov and Paul Byron, expire next summer.
Please also note that some youngsters could come in and earn their spot, such as Filip Mesar, Michael Pezzetta, Joshua Roy, Riley Kidney, Emil Heineman and company.
