Add in the team's likely wish to change the narrative (everyone is leaving!) and maybe you bet on a good person/player to age well and keep him around.
Won't be a popular direction if they take it, but I at least see some logic in it.

I agree with the sentiment, only issue is trading Lindholm likely results in the biggest return in picks/prospects to help move along the retool/build. His contract and timing with what's available on the UFA market makes it look like the Flame could make off like bandits.
