Is not a cup winning centre core. I know this website can be an echo chamber but people need to look at centre cores of other teams.
Luckily for the Flames We are strong on defense and wings to make up for it so its that THAT big of an issue right now but it is an obvious weakness. Luckily we have Lindholm who we can maybe use as a centre to bolster that group however that would cause our Wing depth to be poor.

But the beauty of the Flames situation is that Lindholm does not necessarily have to be one or the other. He slots in on the wing, but the fact that he is a great centre is invaluable to that top line.
