It sounds like a lot but when you really look at it, itā€™s just a lot of fluff in there.

Good trade by Emilie, also saves 750 k capwise, at least it appears that way

A 1st, two B prospects and Kuzmenko? Thatā€™s fairly pricey, I like the gamble but thatā€™s more than many teams have gotten for rentals the last few years
- neem55

Kuzmenko was a free asset and he wasnā€™t fitting into Tocchetā€™s system. Lindholm is a much more important piece to the teams success as a center. Really good addition.

I'm with ya.
The cost isn't crazy, i'm just not convinced that Lindholm can turn it around.
I like his verstality.
Hopefully our pro scouts know what they're doing.

- dbot

I donā€™t see Lindholm the 40g guy but he has scorers here & will do better. Big reason to get him is a very good 2C on D & other details.

This was a huge need for the team, Allvin does not mess around.

Very proactive management group , I like itšŸ‘šŸ‘

Is it high? Depends on the perspective, my view is they traded a bunch of hopefully maybe s and a player that was a drain on this lineup in how he was being utilized, nothing immediate, for a top 6 C and an apparently highly sought after 1 ,

I like that he Didn't sell the farm, and still have our top prospects.
- dbot

Agreeā€¦that Brzustewicz kid having a fantastic year really upped his trade value. With Hughes and Hronek heā€™s expendable, team needs more D-Peteyā€™s than offensive dmen.

Figure out the rest later.

I like that they made the move ahead of the TDL too.
Avoid any potential bidding wars.

So if JTM is 1C and Lindholm 2C are we still paying Petey 12 mil plus as a C?

Yes I know I like to stir sh1t.

I'm not that fussed if he re-signs or not.

Hopefully he fits in and can help convince Petey to take a bit less of the pie in order to resign them both next year

As long as heā€™s producing and making a difference he can play any position for 11.5 million a year.

Or Petey sees PA is all about winning & leaves some pie on the table. Either way like you said next year is next year.

He was a 40g guy with a Gaudreau and Tkachuk.

He's playing with Sharangovich, Huberdeau, Mangiapane mostly in Calgary this year.

Sharangovicb has done great.
Huberdeau a playmaker that is fizzling.

Imo Lindholm after adjusting will be better than his points suggest.

Trying to see how 1 more significant trade could work cuz cap out looks difficult without really any salary to move out.

- Nighthawk

His expected stats are much better than his actual stats.
His high danger expected goals would be 4th on Canucks. Behind Brock, Petey, Millzy.
Same with expected goals.

His on ice expected goals against would rank last on the Canucks.

It seems as if he has been snake bitten a bit this year and poor finishing by his line mates has not helped either.
