I doubt those numbers are going to happen, but I like it.

I like lindholm but hes not signing in BUF for 5 mil. Nor are we spending that much in general.

Lindholm had a career year in 2021-22, but his numbers are declining--64 pts last season, on pace for 47 this season. He's also in a third line role for the 'Nucks, which is what he'd be in Buffalo and with him plateauing at that 50-60 point range, $5.25-6M is probably where he'll end up. I chose the lesser number.

for a contending team sure. To get him to sign in buffalo? He's not signing for that little. Unless nobody else offers him a deal.
