Hold tight for now and see if he and Huby can actually build chemistry and see some signs that Lindholm can be a PPG centre without Gaudreau/Tkachuk on his wings.
I never said rush but

Dube is playing himself off the team
Markstom's career is over
Lindholm obviously can't play because he didn't win the Ty Rattie memorial trophy in the preseason
ect.

This place is kinda wild...in my day preseason wasn't even televised. Vancouver's stars didn't do much of anything tonight either. Looked like guys just trying to get through it. (and they lost a top 4-6 dman and it looked bad)

I wouldn't sign Lindholm right now either because there is no benefit...if he starts lights out the price will be the same

this preseason doesn't sway me either way though...nor should it
