I think moving Lindholm to centre this season also had to do with the fact that the Flames were trying to move Monahan for Anderson.
Lindholm
Backlund
Bennett
Ryan
Is what I believe the centre depth would have been had Treliving been able to acquire Anderson.
Which is also something to keep in mind on any returns for Monahan. Columbus chose Max Domi over Monahan in a return for Anderson.

Was it ever reported what the Flames offer was, or the deal for that matter? I recall there being discussion that the move would have also included a G and Friedman speculated the Flames also had interest in Gavrikov. This was prior to the UFA market being open.
We can speculate Monahan was part of the package, but I don’t think that has been confirmed.
