'Cool To Get The Acknowledgment'
Jonathan Huberdeau has hit a major milestone in his NHL career. The Calgary Flames forward recorded his 800th career point with an assist on Matt Coronato’s game-winning goal against Seattle. This achievement places him among an elite group of just 26 active players with 800 or more points in the league.
Huberdeau’s recent form has been strong, contributing in four of his last five games. His latest performance came during the Flames’ California Dads Trip, where he added two more assists to his tally.
The play that marked Huberdeau’s 800th point began with a defensive effort. He tracked back to his own blue line, forcing a turnover that set up the decisive goal. His assist on Coronato’s winner secured the milestone in style.
With 541 assists and 187 points since joining Calgary, Huberdeau has been a key player for the Flames. He now stands as the third member of the 2011 Draft class to reach 800 points, alongside Nikita Kucherov and Mark Scheifele.
Off the ice, Huberdeau’s father, Alain, missed the game but plans to visit Calgary for Christmas. The family will reunite during the holiday, with the Flames hosting their pre-holiday finale against Edmonton on December 20, 2025.
Looking ahead, Huberdeau has set his sights on two more career milestones: 1,000 points and 1,000 games in the NHL. His consistency and playmaking ability suggest he remains on track to achieve them.
Huberdeau’s 800th point cements his place among the NHL’s top active scorers. The Flames will now prepare for their final game before the holiday break, facing Edmonton on December 20. His father’s visit will add a personal touch to the team’s festive celebrations in Calgary.
