The Calgary Flames acquired Jonathan Huberdeau in a blockbuster deal with the Florida Panthers in a deal that sent Matthew Tkachuk the other way.
With only one year remaining on his contract with a cap hit of $5.9 million, Flames fans have wondered what the future might hold for the star winger.

Last week, Huberdeau and Flames general manager Brad Treliving met for dinner to discuss a possible extension. While he has claimed to be open to a deal, he is set up for a huge payday next summer if he chooses to test free agency.

The account is obviously an Edmonton Oilers fan judging from the profile picture, and the fans from both sides of the Battle of Alberta will go as far as they can to take shots at their provincial rivals.
