If he gets traded or leaves it will turn negative as well. Lindy didn't want to stay, this organization sucks! No one wants to play for the Flames! Norman is the worst of all billionaires on this earth!

Some people are always looking for the negative angle and the media feeds off of that.
Certainly not how I'd look at it.

I look at two things:

- Does Lindy want to stay?
- Is Lindholm a good enough centre to build a top team around?

It seems Lindy does not want to stay, so that kind of makes the debate around point two less important - but I'm also not sold on Lindy being able to be a top-line centre that is the key piece on that top line.

As far looking for the negative angle, when you have a season like this past one, and a history like the Flames' - you don't have to look for negative angles.
