I wasn't too keen on the idea of Lindholm playing on the top line, thinking we need to develop a strong second line and spread out the scoring. However, I liked Peters comment that with Lindholm on the top line, they won't be afraid to match it up against the opponent's top line. One of weaknesses of the Flames, I've thought, is that the Gaudreau-Monahan line is not hard to play against and doesn't match up well against other team's top lines. With Lindholm slotting in, I'd be a lot more confident putting them out there against a Pavelski, Getzlaf, or Kopitar.
