Jurmo... long shot but a lot of good tools.
Low 1st round pick and if Lindholm helps the Nucks to a West Final a 4th rounder too.

Nucks fill a big question in their top 6 and get someone who flourished under a defensive, work-hard coach.

The Canucks are a legit contender this year so if I was a Canucks fan, I'd be happy with the deal. I think Lindholm, despite his under production so far this season, moves the needle on any team. If the Flames were in the same position, I'd want to go for it this season and wouldn't mind giving up futures.
