Both stars are no longer being viewed as underrated players, receiving league-wide recognition as superstar caliber players by each performing at a 100-point pace.
The 2018-19 season was an incredibly memorable one for both Aleksander Barkov and Jonathan Huberdeau, becoming the first duo to each reach 90+ points in a single season in the history of the Florida Panthers. The dynamic duo of Barkov and Huberdeau combined for almost 200 points on the season, serving as the main catalysts for an unsuccessful playoff push.
In regards to Barkov’s 2019 campaign, the captain set the single-season franchise record for the most points in a season with 96 – broke Pavel Bure’s record of 94.
