If you are talking about a trade in general that doesn't involve #3 I agree.

Yeah I think there are several factors for why there could be a fit:
- They have the draft and prospect capital to make a nice offer. And it include a player for now for the Flames (e.g. Sillinger).
- You would have to think Johnny would advocate to bring in Lindholm
- Given past chemistry Lindholm may also have incentives to sign with CBJ to play with Johnny
- Their GM probably has some time pressure to compete sooner rather than later
- If they are going to draft Carlsson at 3 (which I think they will) then Lindholm is an excellent mentor for him and a way to ease him
- CBJ has been searching for a #1 centre for a long time
A lot of fit there. Just not for 3.
