You trying to give Montreal a top 10 pick?

Philly and flames say no

Was it protected?

You had me at fire Sutter. If you're gonna trade Lindholm, you should just trade the rest too.

depends

If Lindholm and Hanifin walk, they're getting one anyways.

Detroit isn't giving up a 1st this year for a year of an almost 30 year old who will want a raise going into his declining years and could walk to UFA. Great player, but doesn't fit the rebuild timeline, and not worth that offer. Lindholm has had 2 seasons in which he was close to a ppg, otherwise he performs as a solid 2C. Last season was a career year, and he regressed this season.

There is no way I'd give up a pick that looks like it could be around 15-20, and also the 40th pick in a super deep draft for a 29 year old that will want north of 7 million on his next deal but will likely only give you 60 or 70 points a year at best. Lindholm will want to get cash on his last deal after outperforming his current deal.

You're going to put up a bunch of points playing between Tkachuk and Gaudreau.

It will be a long season with Veleno as your 2C.
