Difference here is Kuzmenko. It’s debatable if he is an asset or cap dump. So far he is doing alright for the Flames.

Ok? Lindholm wasn’t traded for a 1st and B prospect so I’m not sure what you’re talking about.
He was traded for a 1st, a B prospect, another prospect, a middle six roster player with upside, and a 4th round pick. Show me a pure rental deal in the last 10 years that had a better return than that.
You can debate the nuances of the deal, whether Kuzmenko is any good, whether the prospect is A or B, but it doesn’t matter. Rentals don’t even go for 1st rounders anymore, this was a home run
