Sitting second on the franchise's all-time scoring list, he's quickly closing in on Olli Jokinen's record of 419.
"You just keep telling me of my milestones," Huberdeau said with a big smile after Thursday's practice at the Panthers IceDen. "Obviously it was great. Being there at 500 was really cool. I've had some time to realize it. Time goes by so, so fast. I just try to appreciate it. Time goes fast, so I'm just focused on trying to make the playoffs, be good this year and get our spot in there."
The third overall pick in the 2011 NHL Draft, Huberdeau's in his eighth season with the Panthers and is also the team's longest-tenured player. So, given his high-level of talent and the amount of time that he's spent in Florida, it's only natural these milestones are becoming more frequent.
In fact, he'd already checked off a few big ones long before Monday's display.
On Nov. 16, he tallied three assists in 4-3 win over the New York Rangers to most past Stephen Weiss (249) for the most assists in franchise history (Huberdeau currently has 264). And, if you go back even further to last season, he claimed the club's single-season assists record with 62.
Climbing up the record books in unison with teammate Aleksander Barkov, who currently ranks fourth in franchise history in points (382) and goals (146) and third in assists (236), Huberdeau will likely end up ranking first or second in most offensive categories when it's all said and done.
"Huby with the puck is a special player," Panthers coach Joel Quenneville said after the win over Ottawa. "His play recognition and patience with the puck… He had some dandy little moves there tonight. He's got that capability. He can do a lot of good things. He has a lot of years left, a lot of points to come as well, and a lot of games."
