This is a thread talking about Monahan, and it's no slight against Lindholm to acknowledge that Monahan is superior at this point.
Additionally, you're replying to someone who said Lindholm is "a very good player" and " I think he has elite 2nd line centre potential or bottom tier 1st line centre potential"
What do any of the facts you regurgitated about Lindholm (or comparing him to Jankowski) have to do with what you quoted - or this topic? What or who are you arguing with?
In case you're unaware, this is why people are bewildered with you.

Why didn't you make a similar post under FDW's post:

For Nurse the ranking is mostly based on potential. I still think he has the time and ability to turn into a top pairing d-man. Obviously he's far from a finished product but he's been rushed. We will see if it permanently hurts him, I think he can probably turn around his career now that the real clowns in Edmonton aren't in complete control.
Lindholm is still a very good player. In comparison to Monanhan he's a touch smaller, much more of a slick puck handler, got some sneaky offence in him. I think he actually compares in style more to Bennett although not quite as feisty. I think he has elite 2nd line centre potential or bottom tier 1st line centre potential.
Wennberg impresses me every time I watch CBJ. Very, very smart player. Very good puck handler. Very skilled overall. Decent size on him. Definitely a top two line centre already. Much like Lindholm I think he can be an elite 2nd line centre or a bottom tier 1st line centre.
I mean I don't watch a ton of those guys but those are my impressions from what I have seen.
I probably should've put Burakowsky on my list as well, I've seen him the least though so I didn't feel as confident placing him in the ranki

I read that FDW expressed his opion that at age 21 Lindholm's chances of being a #1C were very small. There are a lot of posters that have put the similar aged Jankowski's potential as a 1C or 2c . FDW might have expressed that opinion on other threads.
Comparing same age players, was an effort to explain my support for having Lindholm becoming a #1C like Monahan?
Perhaps you were cheering on the Jets and missed the long pre-draft discussion on the merits of Lindholm/Monahan rather than being a Keep it on topic hall-monitor here at CP.
But again why did you not make the same comment on FDW's post that was every bit as on or off topic as mine?
