In 20/21 he was second on his line
21/22 he was third on his line
22/23 he was second on his line.
So like RNH he is not a line driver. Maybe he has so many intangibles that he is worth 75% more. But their offensive numbers are similar.

More lazy analysis.
People want to say how bad of a year Lindholm had this season but he only struggled scoring goals which was due to the fact he didn’t get to play with the best playmaker on the team. Lindholm had the second highest assist total of his career and Toffoli went on to beat his best season significantly
Gaudreau had 99 and 115 points in the 2 years he played with Lindholm from start to finish. Without Lindy Johnny has been a 70-75ish point player. Monahan didn’t touch 80pts before or after the one year he had Lindholm on his wing.
Nuge is playing with at least one of the 2 best centers in the league one the best power play’s in the history of the league where Nuge got more than half of his points last year. You talk about him averaging 70pts over the past 4 years but last year was the first time he actually exceeded 70pts in his career. The guy misses games every year and has only found success recently by switching to the wing.
