With Friedman’s latest to suggest that the flames had no real interest in moving Backlund/Lindholm, and are instead looking at extending them this summer, I have big reservations about their direction right now.

I’m fine with keeping both if they want to extend. Finding a second and third line C can take forever. Ideally you at least keep Lindholm as he has shown progression every year except this one. You cannot just trade these guys for the sake of trading, it took forever for the Flames to acquire some centre depth. A full rebuild is not in the cards, so you try and get them on reasonable contracts or trade them next year if no agreement is made.
