Argue that you don't want to extend guys 8 years all you want, but base it on reality. This guy is the most complete and dynamic C the Flames have seen since Joe was in his prime.

Not to speak for CZ, but Lindholm's prime years are likely behind him.
If Lindholm is your number one centre and you expect to compete for a Cup, you better one hell of a supporting cast to help him out - which the Flames don't have.
