Jonathan Huberdeau facing backlash from fans after comment
After expressing his feelings about the Florida Panthers Stanley Cup win, Jonathan Huberdeau faced online backlash from fans.
Huberdeau, who spent 10 seasons with the Panthers before joining the Calgary Flames, admitted it was tough to watch his former team achieve the dream he couldn't achieve with them.
In his first comments since Florida's victory, Huberdeau spoke about the emotional challenge of seeing his old team win. Fans were quick to criticize him on social media, with some arguing that the Panthers wouldn't have won with him and comparing the situation to the Raptors trading DeRozan for Kawhi Leonard.
Despite the criticism, Huberdeau praised his former teammates, particularly Barkov and Ekblad. Huberdeau, who signed an $84 million contract with the Flames, has struggled to replicate his 115-point season with the Panthers in 2021-22. Flames fans are hopeful he can turn things around and eventually lift the Cup himself.
