Do you really want to make the same mistake you just did with Kadri and Huberdeau and sign a player like this for 8 years, likely over $8MM AAV?
Trade him this off-season, retain salary (I know this scares the Murray Edwards), and get a haul for him while you can. Don't turn another asset into an immovable object.

I have been a pretty big fan of Lindholm up until this year, but I agree, it's time to move on. They can get a big return for him, and I would rather not see the team paying him huge money for declining years.
