Is our goal really to get the next Lindholm? Another player who is fine as a secondary piece, but not something I'd be building a roster around.
It seems some people's expectations are so low of the team that the best we can hope for is another Lindholm.
Personally, I'd rather just be awful for a few years and hope to get the next Mackinnon or Makar. So we have a base to start building a roster around.
