Seriously, it’s not good to have a 1C who is essentially a trigger man with a decent two way game. He isn’t a good passer, isn’t physical, and isn’t fast. It’s a huge problem for this franchise moving forward that’s been masked by the fact that those two have been able to heat up for long regular season stretches at times.
Lindholm to 1C full time please. Even when he went ice cold for 20ish games he was still a useful player. He should be in the middle

In hindsight it might be a good thing that those 2 are in a slump because it opens the door for others to take some leadership. If there was anything lacking in the past it was that the top line was heavily relied on to carry the team, scoring. Changing the team dynamics might just be what this team needs. What to do about the dead weight..?
