Friedman on Huberdeau, Hoffman trade speculation
“I definitely think Hoffman is available,” indicated Friedman. “He’s a really talented guy. He’s got one more year at I think $5.5 million. I wouldn’t be surprised if somebody trades for him because you’re always looking for scoring.
“The Huberdeau one is interesting. That came out I guess in the last 24 hours. I’ve had people tell me that there is no way that Florida is dealing Huberdeau, and I’ve had other people tell me that they’ve heard quietly Florida is at least looking at it. So I don’t know what to say.
“I just can’t believe they would trade Huberdeau, who’s on a great contract, unless the return was unbelievable.”
Huberdeau is in the second season of a six-year, $35.4 million contract, which carries a cap hit of $5.9 million.
That pact contains a no-move clause that will kick in July 1.
