Huberdeau out for the season for hip surgery.
He was just picking it up since coming back from WJC, going 15 pts in 8 games, and two games with 15 PIMs? Not sure how that's possible given no fighting in the NCAA. I doubt he sees any jail time, but those are pretty serious charges, first degree aggravated assault. Usually that's more than a simple fight or bar altercation.![]()

Rumours online are that he was defending his mom. Violence is obviously never great but in context, an 18 year old getting into a bar fight for someone saying something about your family isn't really that unusual. Just most 18 year olds probably can't break the other person's jaw with one punch. It was weird they came out with such a serious charge to start with, and an older article made it seem like the cop visited the victim in hospital to collect his and his friends' statements and that was it.
