The fact that Lindholm had 2 PIM while playing over 15 minutes a game in 48 games does not substantiate the assertion that he plays a gritty game and goes into the hard areas.
Try to find one comparable.
I will attempt to provide a comparable of a similar sized player with play making ability... (Lindholm at all levels has significant more assists than goals) and he plays on the wing.
I understand that you might be upset that I am saying that Lindholm is a playmaker as that is simply my interpretation of the Stats/facts.
One of the softest Flames is Tanquay... He is strong on the puck . Even he gets 20-50 PIM a season.
Will Lindholm be a Tanguay replacement?

Drop the PIM argument already, you're the only one who thinks it isn't completely ######ed.
