Multiple choice…
(a) We traded Lindholm for Kuzmenko.
‘OK, I can see that. A UFA who wanted out for a reclamation project who can at least score. Let's see how it works out. Maybe we can flip Kuzmenko for assets later.’
(b) We traded Lindholm for Jurmo.
‘Meh. A rental for a project. Don't like it, but maybe Jurmo will be a player.’
(c) We traded Lindholm for Brzustewicz.
‘Not bad! Exciting D prospect with plenty of upside. I think we win this deal in the long run, especially if Lindholm walks.’
(d) We traded Lindholm for a 1st.
‘Not bad for a rental that we clearly weren't re-signing. First-round picks are always good to have.’
(e) We traded Lindholm for all of the above, plus a conditional 4th. And then Lindholm sucked in Vancouver and walked at the end of the year.
‘
!’
(Edit: And the conditional 4th turned into Luke Misa and Eric Jamieson. The Dougie Hamilton trade tree is going to be utterly crazy by the time it finally peters out.)
