Does Lindholm belong in this group? He would definitely be on the lower end in terms of how he impacts games. When was the last time you remember Lindholm actually taking over a game? I have a hard time recalling him being a difference maker last year: Either on the PP, 3 on 3, or when we were trailing in the 3rd and needed a goal.
I would Lindholm for any of those guys not named Skinner and even he had 82 points last year
