Lindholm's trade value is arguably as high as Tkachuk's. Its pretty unlikely he will be traded at all with Markstrom still signed long ter.

3 players and 1st is going to be the rate of return on a Tkachuk trade

Lysell and the 1st are the only things with any legitimate value to Calgary here. Would you even trade Pastrnak for that?

Debrusk has no value? If we trade Pasta the return will be similar to this

Not to Calgary. If the Flames trade Tkachuk they are rebuilding. DeBrusk is a decent middle 6 winger on a short term deal

You do realize Calagry has no leverage with Tkachuk right?

Well Tkachuk is leaving that’s basically a fact. I’m talking Lindholm here. Debrusk just had the best season of his career. He doesn’t impact a rebuild team in any way that isn’t positive because you can move him for picks in a year

Oh thats cute you think the issue is Calgary's leverage. You do realize at least 25 teams would kill to add a 100 point 2-way power forward to their team right?

I would assume every team, minus maybe Arizona.
What are you actually expecting back for Tkachuk?

Its not a fact at all? Show me a credible source saying he's even getting shopped.

Whether you are talking about Lindholm or not is irrelevant. That offer simply is not appealing enough for a top 5 most valuable contract in the league

I think you’re about to be disappointed again because Tkachuk is gone. I have no idea why you’d even want to pretend he’s not at this point. And any offer you get for Lindholm is going to consist of 4 or 5 pieces. A 1st an A leve prospect (Lysell) another prospect (Beecher) and a younger NHL top 6 forward (Debrusk). If another team has a better lineup of those assets then fine take the better deal but this is what it would look like. I don’t know what you are expecting ?

Best offer out there. If he's shopped (which is not even confirmed he is) then I would probably be looking at the Eichel trade as a baseline then work up. Since he's well not injured and would have a 7 year extension likely in place

So instead of finding a source saying he's being shopped you just repeated yourself? Lol

And no there is no reason for Calgary to move Lindholm at all. He convinced his best friend to sign a long term deal with the Flames. He is clearly happy playing along side Markstrom too

Jesus man this is like North Korean news agency stuff. You guys just lost a player for nothing you could have traded last year. And here google can help you:
