Anybody can find a way to spin a trade or a player to make it sound like it sounds great, but for me, I'm looking at it from all angles here and my initial instinct upon reading that Lindholm wanted $5M+ was not a positive one.
I'm not even out right saying that he'll regress, I'm just saying, the possibility exists from what I'm seeing. I'm not just going to assume that because he's 23 and a 1st round pick that he's automatically just going to continue to improve. That isn't exactly valid either and with the limited amount of knowledge we all have of this particular player, I don't know how one could even back up anything with "good reasoning." It's all just opinion and conjecture at this point.

Sorry do you mean that Lindholm is more at risk to regress than any other player? If not, is your argument simply that
any player
could potentially regress any year? If so, I don't think you'll find anyone on this board who would disagree with that.
If not, what is your argument that Lindholm is more likely to regress than another player.
