good news bad news - i think boston is overpaying (i'm sure they've seen lindholm play this year, and it's not been great), that's the bad news. the good news is that's a bonkers overpay for guentzel.
ultimately i think two things hold this up:
1. it would have to be a three way trade rather than two separate transations. bruins needed retention on lindholm, and the same is true now. vancouver isn't doing it, so i'm sure pittsburgh would have to. boston would also need to ditch salary, and again, pittsburgh would have to be eating it.
2. Boston reportedly wouldn't trade for the player without an extension in the drawer. That likely hasn't changed, except their offer is probably a whole lot lower. If I'm Lindholm, there's no shot i'm signing an extension before UFA. His leverage is super low right now.
