Popular Post Down By the River Posted March 20 Popular Post Share Posted March 20 Suggesting that we got "stuck" with Pius Suter when he has been playing way above his cap hit makes this a bit of an overdramatic joke. Lindholm has not worked out offensively. There is still time. 7 12 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindholm has not worked out offensively. There is still time. And to be honest, I'd rather him find his game late in the season, and knocking our socks off in the Playoffs. Unlike Loui at least Lindholm wins faceoffs, and is contributing in other ways. It's not like he hasn't had chances, they haven't been going in. There's always a scapegoat on the Canucks. When Brock was struggling there was cries of "trade him!" The guy has 36 goals and 30 assists, and there still those that scream "trade him!" Some are still upset at the Hronek trade. I wonder how many on CDC and CFF if they were given a choice between a boat and the mystery box how many would take the mystery box? 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flat land fish Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 If Lindholm outplays what Kuzmenko would have provided we are still a better team. He can move up the lineup if needed as well. We need a RH face off guy and fills that roll. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allvin has been improving the team dramatically since he arrived, making more moves than any other GM. Maybe we made the trade that was on the table that was also the only one that didn't gut our future. Edited March 20 by Bob Long 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HKSR Posted March 20 Popular Post Share Posted March 20 I look at it as even if we don't re-sign Lindholm, we've freed up nearly $6M in cap for an upgrade. Could mean we poach teams that are cap crunched and desperate to sell (see VGK and CAR). Could mean we acquire assets for pennies on the dollar because of our cap space this off season. I'll reserve judgment until: 1. We see what Lindholm does in the playoffs. 2. We see what PA/JR do with the cap space. 7 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Ok if we can find a cheap centre, who's under 26, who wins faceoffs, is willing to hit, and play defensively and scores at a higher clip. Point them out, especially if we can trade a late round pick for him. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
