Some nice pieces there.

Kadri is a second line center. If he's forced into that number one slot, like Sutter tried, we're in a world of hurt. The guy just doesn't have the skill to play on the top line. Couldn't use a winger to save his life.
100% Agree

If you're moving Lindholm you want a young forward (ideally a center) back as part of the package.

LA: Byfield
CBJ: Sillinger or Johnson
CAR: Jarvis (or maybe Kotkaniemi who actually profiles similar to young Lindholm)
MIN: Rossi
BUF: Krebs

I actually think the best use of Kadri is to play him with two wrecking balls that drive the net and create screens. Wouldn't mind seeing Coleman, Duehr and Kadri as a line to be honest.
