That’s the problem. It’s difficult to imagine a scenario where Lindholm is dealt and the Flames take a step forward next season.
And while he’s a very good player, if you dig into capfriendly, the list of teams that a) need a top 2 centre, b) are in win now mode, and c) have the cap structure to fit him in longterm is not long at all. Like, maybe 3-4 teams. And it will be the Flames who will the motivated seller, since they won’t want to let him walk for nothing.
