Lindholm is a fine #1C with elite wingers flanking him
different story when it's a 2nd liner and a 3rd liner
given this fact, I really think huby-lindholm/kadri-lindholm/kadri should be given a look
stacking talent elevated last years team from 2021
it's not popular because we worked to bolster the center depth, but this team isn't skilled enough to run lines with the talent spread out like it is. you end up with 4 lines, none of which can carry the load offensively, but just click from time to time
