Risky.



Also, paying Lindholm for what he was when centering Gaudreau and Tkachuk and not what he's worth away from those players seems like a risk not worth taking.
I'm not projecting anything. But if you think that isn't part of the process, then you're delusional. We are already seeing players take short deals because they think the cap will rise. It is literally the agent's job to be on top of that issue.
