If Lindholm doesn’t re-sign here, it wouldn’t surprise me if he ends up in Carolina.

I think Boston is a legitimate home for him and would pay the contract he wants. They aren't into rebuilding and desperately need C.
Friedman said as much on last 32 pod. Boston is likely circling either Lindholm or Scheifele. And now they are down to one.
I think it's worth imaging what the return is at this point because there is a reasonable chance this happens. And looking at the prospects and picks available from Boston, it's not really exciting.
