Yeah. I wouldnt give him that. I wouldnt give him anywhere close to that.

Someone else said it first, but 'Backlund money' and probably Backlund term.

Considering his age and lack of production, he is looking at 'Nearly 30-year-old Defensive 3rd line centre' money.

I was all for trading him. I loved Zebulon during his time here, he was a good soldier, but he just lost something at some point and his contract demands for both dollars and term, all things considered, just weren't realistic which is why I was all aboard the 'Trade Lindholm Train' since the summer.

Could you imagine having that contract for this edition of Lindholm on our books in conjunction with the rest of the crap that idiot Treliving saddled us with?
