Jonathan Huberdeau Out for Season with Hip Surgery: Flames Forward's Absence Impacts Team's Performance

Jonathan Huberdeau will be sidelined for the rest of the 2025-26 season due to the need for hip surgery, as reported by Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman. Despite his decision to play in the Flames' recent game against the Edmonton Oilers, the forward will now undergo surgery, ending his season prematurely. Huberdeau, who scored the opening goal in his final game of the season, has a contract with Calgary that extends through the 2030-31 season, but he will not be able to contribute on the ice for the remainder of this year. In the 50 games he played this season, Huberdeau tallied 10 goals and 15 assists, but his absence will be felt as the Flames continue to struggle with a 23-27-6 record.
