Description
This idea was originally posted by a Flames fan here: https://www.capfriendly.com/forums/thread/720202

It's my opinion that 3M/season more than Anderson for Huberdeau during the first 4 years is a steal. Those last 4 years, I don't think he'll be as good as he currently is, but the cap could be in and around 95M by that time, so the Habs should be able to afford it

Huberdueau was playing with Lucic for half the year, while being on the wrong side. I will gladly keep Huberdueau, and maybe our next coach isn't a complete idiot, and plays him with people that work for him

Huberdeau is bound to bounce back after arguably the worst year of his career. Not trading him for scraps.

No way Calgary considers this, with all those long term deals they are committed to winning with this group and this trade makes them worse (and Anderson + Dvorak + Salary Retention is a bigger cap hit then they currently have... $10.5M vs $12M).

I understand. But this was in the optics of a rebuild if you look at the original post that I quoted. I understand this won't happen. Not one retains for 8 years!
