Ya your point is basically Lindholm and Monahanare interchangeable which is simply not true. If the Flames are offering Monahan+Valimaki+Coronato+22 1st. Well if the ask turns to Lindholm from Monahan the the Flames offer changes from Valimaki to Kylington and Coronato is off the table.
Lindholm fired his agent in year 2 of his deal as he likely could be upset he left money on the table going 6 years with the Flames he could have easily got a huge deal if he went bridge with Calgary. I don’t see why he would sign a reasonable deal with the Sabres when he can go to market and maximize his value.
I don’t think it is worth the Sabres sacrificing futures to get a better win now player in Lindholm is my point
