He's seeing pretty limited minutes with weaker linemates and putting up some points too.

The Vegas proposal is more what I'm expecting at this point with how Lindholm is playing. Hope to be pleasantly surprised. I like Edstrom to be a middle six centre in the long run similar to Backlund if it all pans out well.
From what I've heard, Poitras is also very strong defensively. So I'd argue his floor is also pretty good.
