Bergeron didn't crack 0.80 ppg between ages 23-30 (though his 2nd/3rd years in the league were both about 0.90). Lindholm has exceeded that mark 4/5 seasons, so one could argue that Lindholm has bit more offense (especially goal scoring).


I think Bergeron is the 2nd best centre in the Crosby era, and Lindholm isn't anywhere near his level...but it's also not an outlandish comparison.
