That's my opinion as well. There's a reasonable possibility that a player like Lindholm could ultimately be as good or better than Mackinnon. From a hypothetical standpoint I don't think history would look at a Lindholm, Morrissey, and Klimchuk for Mackinnon deal as being a good thing for the team that dealt those three players.
My fear is that ultimately Colorado makes this deal in a second, right now they're just trying to squeeze more from what they perceive to be a weak hand. A deal like this seems to be more marketing driven than hockey driven from a Flames point of view.
