Looking at Barzal, Horvat, Zibanejad, Forsberg why wouldn't Lindholm be worth what they are getting?
All depends on the trade return too.

Lindholm at 8 x $8.5M from 29-37

vs

Whatever Lindholm returns in a trade + $8.5M of cap space.

Like if the LA Kings offer Quinton Byfield and a 1st for Lindholm then I'm taking the prospects and the cap space.

It's why it's hard to assess these things as bystanders, we have no idea what the opportunity costs of these things are.
