I didn't think Lindholm would get that kind of deal. Kudos to him and his agent.

Cool

Lindholm is one of the better 2 way C’s , which they’ve needed since losing Bergeron and Krejci

Zad is a … pretty tall defenseman which they’ve needed since losing Chara



And marvellous that Vancouver paid a good amount to Calgary to rent these guys and now have nothing to show for either one

Just the 14.5m he left on the table? Not actually a bad recovery but so glad we didn't get him signed up.

I think that this Lindholm deal will be good but the Zadorov one looks rough.


Also, kinda funny that Boston will have an E. Lindholm and an H. Lindholm

Zadarov has to be happy with that contract.

The Lindholm deal is fair. I think he could overperform playing with Marchand and Pasta

I think Lindholm will fit into the Boston style quite cleanly.

Do we know what Vancouver was offering Zadorov?

Oh wow. What awful, awful deals. Didn't expect that from Boston... or anyone.

Also what if the Bruins got rid of the wrong goalie?

What was the rumoured final best offer the Flames made to Lindholm last year?

That Zadorov contract is going to be a boat anchor. He’s, at best, a 4th defenseman on a good team.

Zadorov deal is the first contract today that's truly terrible in an almost offensive way IMO

Both deals are too much $$$. Z at 5 is a big price to pay for a guy who can't get mistakes and bad decisions out of his game.

Lindholm having a good playoffs probably saved himself a good 20+ million.
