Calgary's Jonathan Huberdeau reacts to Florida Panthers Stanley Cup victory
The Calgary Flames traded Matthew Tkachuk for Jonathan Huberdeau two summers ago, and now the latter has reacted to his former teams success.
2024 was an incredible year for the Florida Panthers, who, after years of being atop the NHL, finally broke through and won the first Stanley Cup in franchise history. While it was glory for everyone involved, there were players that helped them get to where they are today before moving on, with the likes of Jonathan Huberdeau and Mackenzie Weegar among them.
Both of those players were traded away in order for Florida to acquire Matthew Tkachuk, and now, Huberdeau has reacted to witnessing his former team lift the iconic Stanley Cup.
Sounds like Jonathan Huberdeau has spoken publicly for the first time since the Florida Panthers won the Stanley Cup.
«It's hard to see the guys lift the Cup»
In his first interview since the Panthers won the Cup, Huberdeau was complimentary of players that he spent time with in Florida, but given that he was traded and has now struggled, it's easy to see his frustration. Now, the Panthers are set up for success with their core in tact, while Huberdeau remains in a rebuild with the Flames, so we will wait and see if the 31-year old will ever get a shot at lifting Lord Stanley.
