Guentzel is a better fit for that, if they could do this without a huge markup it's a win

I'd rather get toffoli and keep lindholm, with Myers out a few weeks, and they can hold him to playoffs if needed, the cap isnt an issue
See this is what's weird to me...why spend all those assets on Lindholm who was the only really C on the market...to then play him on the wing or shift one of your current centers (who are having unreal seasons) to the wing.

Honestly seems weird to me still, overall it's a soft crop of forwards, but I can't help but think that the assets the Canucks traded could have gotten them a winger with term on an okay contract, instead of spending the premium on a Center.

Like if you wanted a winger to drive play or who was more responsible than Kuzmenko then even on the Flames someone like Coleman should have been the target.
