DixonWard Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 (edited) We have to remember that the Canucks as a whole have played like poop since Lindholm got here. I still think he is a great asset for a playoff run. You win with goaltending, defence, and strong centermen, in that order. EP, Miller, Lindholm, Blueger, Suter, Lafferty give us great strength down the middle. Lindholm is a great player, it's the coaches' job to find the role that shows that. For me, I don't want to give up Lindholm's face-offs and defensive play. Zadorov compared him to Barkov and Bergeron. Give him som time.

JeremyCuddles Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 The only players fortunate enough to have consistent linemates are Joshua/Garland and Miller/Boeser. I don't know how we expect Lindholm to find chemistry when he has new linemates decently often. Leave the Swedes together for the remainder of the year. Trading Lindholm, who hasn't found chemistry for Guentzel who has no chemistry is just resetting the chemistry experiment. And should Miller or Petey go down, Lindholm is better center security than Guentzel. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWJC Posted March 6 Author Share Posted March 6 (edited) Perhaps mgmt has had discussions with Lindholm and his reps about an extension and it didn’t go far…? Mgmt has shown a directive to tidy up any questions surrounding their assets prior to this TDL (eg. EP extension). Would not surprise me if PAJR is insuring on their options/investments in order to capitalize on them if need be for this run. then again, could also be they just listened in on an offer that included Lindholm. or it could all just be shit. but it’s TDL, something to talk about amongst the build up.

wai_lai416 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 39 minutes ago, Rekker said: Except Boston needs a center, badly. There were rumours of Boston wanting Lindholm both this deadline and as UFA. Now, Boston is somewhat struggling. I can see the Bruins paying up. if they wanted it that badly they would have paid over the moon to calgary in the first place. at the end of the day i don't see us making any trade for guentzel and lindholm is going to walk in the off season after doing not much in his short tenure as a canuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly... No I'm going out on a limb here, but I don't think the market is going to be super strong for expiring UFAs like Guentzal. There are lots of options for players. Buyers market Guentzal has been on the market for a month or so and hasn't budged. Usually that means a lack of interest. Plus he is still injured.

Provost Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 31 minutes ago, stawns said: He's playing very important roles in van........faceoffs and pk Thats not nothing. That's a big deficiency if they lose that for a winger Blueger and Suter are solid bottom six centres. The upgrade on the top six wing would likely be more significant than the drop off at centre. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTramFan Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Forget Guentzel - too high a cost imo. If Lindy is not working out and BOS wants him badly, something like: Lindholm + Lafferty for Frederic + Debrusk Debrusk Miller Boeser Frederic Pettersson Hoglander Joshua Blueger Garland Podkolzin Suter Mikheyev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really want to see Blue or Suter in the last min taking a key draw in their own end.....miller and Lindy are a good tandem to have for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
