Selling Lindholm earlier creates maybe the most valuable asset of them all: a better 2024 Flames first round pick.

Not many trades where everyone likes it.
Most liked the Huberdeau trade, only detractors were concerned about JH being unsigned after last year...

Also, as mentioned, he found a trading partner in Rutherford, who just got a new contract, who is willing to signal to go for it at all costs, this year, this early.

This trade (aside from how good the return is) really answers a lot to lingering questions and doubts that many of us have had.

Craig will be patient and wait for the right deal
He will not chase a playoff spot as a priority above the teams future
He knows what he’s doing

I think we are in good hands

Treliving was taken down by the Balrog and the Valar sent us a resurrected Wizard to finish his task on middle earth

If you and I agree it must be a good deal

So if there were rumors that Tanev could be part of this deal then I wonder if we see him moved by the end of all star weekend as well

I can just hear the choruses of "Brrruuuuuuuuuuu" when he carries the puck down the ice.

Can we give the guy a chance before we label him and run him out of town?

Or I wonder if there is so much interest that Conroy is going to play these GM's off against eachother to try and squeeze as much as he can. Will be interesting to see it play out.

No Flames was their plan all along

Kuz in the doghouse has 21 points.

Lindholm getting every opportunity possible has 32.

LMAO. I'm envisioning him with Huberdeau now. Nothing but spinning backhand passes allowed!

I hope they don't wait too long. With the game that Tanev plays he is one bad luck play away from having 0 value.

Maybe this will end the Wideman chapter.
Blackhawks no rep either without Bedard, so ends their issues with the league as well.

Sure, now that the NHL has banned LGBT celebrations I’m sure he’s all in.

Retain and get a few more picks. I’ve heard he’d fit in well in DeFlorida.

Thing is you generally wait to hope more teams get interested...if you already have a huge market you're probably better off trying to make the deal before they either shift focus to another deal or Tanev gets hurt
