We are proud that he has earned this tremendous opportunity and are looking forward to him bringing the growing excitement surrounding the Florida Panthers to Las Vegas."
Huberdeau's invitation will mark his second appearance at the NHL All-Star Game and the All-Star Skills Competition, following his nomination in 2019-20.
Huberdeau, 28, has appeared in all 36 of Florida's games this season, leading the club in assists (34), points (47), even-strength points (31), and power-play points (14). He ranks tied for second among NHL skaters in assists and sits fifth in points, pacing all NHL skaters with 14 points (3-11-14) since Dec. 29. He also leads all skaters in assists (26) and points (32) on home ice in 2021-22.
The 6-foot-1, 202-pound native of Saint-Jerome, Quebec, has been named an NHL 'Star of the Week' twice in the past six weeks. He was named First Star for the week ending Dec. 5 after posting nine points (1-8-9) over three games, and Third Star for the week ending Jan. 2 after recording eight points (1-7-8) over three contests. Huberdeau has produced eight points over a two-game span twice this season, the only Panther in club history to accomplish the feat.
Originally selected by Florida in the first round (third overall) of the 2011 NHL Draft, Huberdeau is currently the Panthers' longest-tenured player and stands as the franchise leader in assists (364) and points (545), ranking second in games played (627) and third in goals (181).
