There's no scenario where the Flames find better success without that top line production unless there's a better or equal player than Lindholm coming in to help with that. Czarnik or Ferland or even Neal are not that. By a lengthy margin.

Right, balancing sometimes means lowering the production of one line as a whole, while raising the production of another.
It’s not just because. You don’t need a player equal to Lindholm to create balance. That’s increasing the overall production by a lot, which would be ideal, but unfeasible. Seeing if balance can increase it a little bit, or spread out the scoring, is the obvious goal.
