They're not in the same stratosphere to me.
I suspect you’re right. But fact is Ferland has scored more with less ice time and significantly less PP time. Yes he had better linemates but from what I have seen of the numbers, Lindholm spent majority of his time with high quality linemates in Carolina.

Different stratospheres? Guess it depends how you are defining your stratospheres but I don’t see a problem in suggesting that Lindholm needs to continue to improve for the Flames to take a step forward. Lindholm has yet to prove he is much of a goal scorer and it’s not because he hasn’t been given opportunities.
