I know it’s a cliche to say “this forum will have a meltdown”… but it will big a big one if it gets announced that everyone is being extended. It will be bad enough here if just Lindholm gets extended despite the fact that he is the most valuable (to the flames) among the potential 2024 UFAs.
I would be happy to see Lindholm sign if it’s for around Horvat money. But would be concerned if it’s more than $9.0 million.
I think it would be best if Hanifin is traded at the draft as long as he returns at least a first round pick in the 22nd to 13th overall range.
I think toffoli is best to be traded as well at the draft if he can return at least a first round pick in the 32nd to 22nd overall range or, alternatively, returns two picks in the second round. Would like to see someone like Coronato get minutes in the top six this year so I think toffoli is a valuable piece that could be traded.
Backlund I would be happy to see re-signed if it was for a max of 3 years at a reasonable cap hit. He’s been a great flame for a long time.
I think Zadorov could be re-signed for a reasonable cap hit. I like what he brings to the team and they could use his physicality with Lucic and Ritchie being gone.
All that being said… I would be fine to see the flames choose to rebuild completely if Lindholm chooses to leave. Sell everyone for picks/prospects.
