That’s probably a fair assessment. Those are all high-end prospects so they might be too much for a rental. These might be more realistic returns for Lindholm (50% retained) then:
Rangers: 2024 1st round pick + 2nd round pick + Zac Jones
Avalanche: 2024 1st round pick + Mikhail Gulyayev
Stars: 2024 1st round pick + 2024 2nd round pick + Christian Kyrou
Jets: 2024 1st round pick + 2024 2nd round pick + Dimitry Kuzmin
Outside of Gulyayev, I would consider all of those guys B-level prospects. Gulyayev might be more of an A- but it’s early in his development. On the safe side, I did not include a 2nd round pick from the avalanche if he is included.
