A photo published by Huberdeau with Michael Matheson makes Habs fans go crazy

After Tyler Seguin, Joel Armia, Tuukka Rask and many others, it was the turn of defenseman Aaron Ekblad (Florida Panthers) to live his magic moment.

Pictures of the event have been published and we can see two familiar faces.

The new Montreal Canadiens defenseman Michael Matheson, and the one that many hope to see sign with the Habs next summer, Jonathan Huberdeau, were there.

Of course, they are both former teammates with the Panthers and are very good friends. See the nice picture shared by Huberdeau:

Of course, the reactions are numerous following this publication, as some fans and observers try to convince themselves that the friendship between Matheson and Huberdeau could help Kent Hughes to sign the star player, but hey... You be the judge if you see this as newsworthy.

Could Michael Matheson really help the Canadiens convince Jonathan Huberdeau to sign in Montreal? We doubt it, but it's not impossible either.

It can't hurt either way.
