Howden got off to a really great start last year but ever since hasn’t been able to get a nice hot streak going. I mean he wasn’t expected to be top 6 player but I think the Hope was maybe a number 3 C. Still young so still had time to figure it out
I think he’s regressed badly as a player. I’ve seen little to no development defensively which is where I was hoping he could be valuable. I want him to be a really good 4th line center but he seems like more of a liability than anything right now.
