It would be hilarious if the trade went through Calgary for salary retention and we got another asset out of it.

Lindholm’s value is going down everyday

Imagine you can’t score with premier passer like Petterson and Huberdeau?
Nobody can save him now

You'd be an idiot to give him anything over $5mil.

I think he still gets good money but nobody is going to give him term
He could be the next Loiu Eriksson

Worst decision since Vanek chose not to take the islanders extension worth 50m and only earned about 25m the rest of his career.

What a dodged bullet by the Flames, wow.

So many on here were really hoping he'd sign early this season.

If he did sign what was rumoured, Conroy should have been fired for that.

Good Guy Lindholm double agent just tanking to make the first round pick higher.

Honestly though, if Lindholm gets to free agency, what would you offer him to come back?

To me I wouldn't even want him back.

I would give him a banner if the Canucks get swept in the 1st round.

If the Canucks can land Guentzel that would be a big add. Definitely dump Lindholm for Guentzel.

Lindholm could probably get the Kadri special but anything over 7.5 over 7 years would be insane to give him.

Kadri was coming off a 100 point pace and a cup championship he was a big part of

Offloading lindholm and adding guentzel will cost them AT LEAST another 2nd round pick when it’s all done. So 1st Brz 2nd kuzmenko Jurmo and maybe another 4th for 2 months of guentzel. Oof.

Absolutely no to bringing back a guy who sulked around and quit on the team.

It would be stunning if he got a long term deal this offseason. He’s probably going to bounce around the league from this point on. Maybe go to Chicago on a 1 year deal to get paid, traded at the deadline. Goes to free agency again and gets a better deal if he actually performs.

I don’t think you can bring him back at this point, his expectation would be first line center but he really isn’t and that experiment post Johnny and Chucky proved it. He’s very good but his pay and slotting will never align with what I personally believe they should be.
