I see you have a stiffy for Monohan. Best hold of judgement on this trade till the return for Monohan is known 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KoreanHockeyFan Posted February 1 Popular Post Share Posted February 1 (edited) Bought low on Lindholm. Sold high on Brzustewicz. Didn't give up Lekkerimäki or Willander. Acted early to get our biggest position of need. Now Tocchet has the flexibility to run the Lotto line while maintaining scoring depth. Can I also mention how this guy is top 5 in faceoff win %? Great move. I'm so excited. I just hope Allvin finds a way to re-sign him - it'd be a shame if we didn't, but also can't believe we actually got him. This guy was at the top of my wishlist.

See, even you just call him Hunter, you can't spell or pronounce his last name either!!! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksCountry Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 The more I think of the deal the more I like it, Lindholm is a a good 2 way guy who has been a pp/g and a 40+ goal scoerer in his career, Kuzmenko hasn't done that yet and I doubt he does so playing with Mikal Backlund as his #1C, Lindholm is good in the dot and can score alot to like about the player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWJC Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 6 minutes ago, EdgarM said: I think Lindholm is the player we hoped Petey would be, the Selke candidate who can take face offs and play in the top 6? I see our Top Six centers as Miller/Lindholm. Fit wise, Lindholm is the right fit. Petey has moved around so much and has had trouble transitioning to the #1 Center position. If Lindholm pans out, I would prioritize him as one of the first to resign. Those top centers are keys to our success. Maybe Lindholm is our insurance policy in case EP (and Nylander) follow through on their threat to demand trades to Chicago. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if we're done? Lindholm doesn’t have to outscore Kuzy. EL is the kind of two way forward that this team needs, especially for a ‘run’. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoreanHockeyFan Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Don't get it twisted people, Brzustewicz has a very high chance to be a legit powerplay quarterback in the NHL, but let's be honest, where was he going to fit in the lineup? Allvin traded a hyped up asset that we're in excess of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny Blankenship Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Love that they targeted a player who’s not only a legitimate offensive threat, but also one who’s not gonna cheat the game in the defensive end. Top to bottom, this team looks legit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PureQuickness Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I'm having some mixed thoughts about this. We could've had Monahan for what could've been a slightly cheaper price. Salary cap, we would've saved a ton of money because Monahan's making something like 2 M (We still save money with Lindholm). Also, if we shaved off money cap wise, we could use that to solidify another area of the team. Dunno. I'd love to see Lindholm play. I feel like Monahan re-signing would've been cheaper to retain.

Ilunga Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 6 minutes ago, Rekker said: Points aren't everything. Lindholm is wicked defensively and great on draws. The Horvat return brought more than Lindholm. Rat is a way more legit prospect than anything we gave up. The firsts are completely different values in different drafts. Experts say this draft thins out at around 20, our pick probably a 26 to 32. Complete opposite of last years deep draft. Both decent trades really. Those of us who are following/ researching this draft believe that after the top ten, it's hard to rate the next 20-30 players. This draft has a fair number of good D prospects. I will say this, in relation to my fantasy teams, we are prioritising 2025 picks because that, at the present, looks like a deeper draft. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing fancy but just a really solid, 200 foot player. And what did we really give up that is so costly? A late first? A player who isn’t in our top six? A B level prospect snd a C level guy? IMHAO the Flames went for quantity over quality. They have to hope HB is a player. Otherwise what do they end up with? Kuz is a UFA 2025. Jurmo is nothing. The first is likely 25-32. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasCanuck Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 So, this leaves us with enough space to acquire Tanev if we do a deal with Calgary and maybe Chicago so that we get him at 25%, 1.125 cap hit. We've got 1.86 million in LTIR left, more if we move Soucy to LTIR as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just saying he has similar numbers with significantly inferior linemates and would have probably cost less. Lindholm is far, far better defensively. Now and historically. Lindholm is a righty, which we sorely needed at center. Monohan is a decent consolation prize but I'd rather go all in for quality. Lindholm has way more compete as well and plays the Tocchet way. They are different players with historically different numbers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
