Lindholm was a Selke finalist....when he played with Gaudreau and Tkachuck.

I see them overpaying another player in their 30s....

Gaudreau has not scored 90pts in a season where he didn’t play almost all of his time with Lindholm. Dube and Toffoli just had career years with Lindholm. Monahan had a career year when Lindholm was moved to his right wing.
Lindholm didn’t score as many goals last year because of the lack of playmaker on his line. He became the play maker and it resulted in the second highest assist total of his career.
I think the Flames will absolutely trade him if they can’t work out a deal
