Lindstrom will be there 7th D

 

[The Zetterberg Era]

Lindstrom will be there 7th D

This, they have a role defined for him at a low cap hit.

 

[jaster]

Insurance, given their blatant lack of depth at RD.

Still wasn't expecting him back. Was expecting to see mcisaac get a look and maybe pysyk as 7-8

 

[Filppula]

When not paired with the pure awfulness of Haag, he looked okay. I don’t mind him around as depth.

 

[jkutswings]

It isn't the worst thing in the world if his name is engraved on a seat in the press box. But I'm still hoping for something more encouraging than, "warm body: break glass in case of emergency".

 

[Hoog]

Soft and getting worse defensively. AHL only, I hope.

 

[Run the Jewels]

Perfectly fine as a depth player. Good signing.

 

[Inspiration]

The RD market must be horrendous.

 

[NickH8]

I thought he was going back to Sweden? He's a serviceable 7thD. Yzerman said he's targeting a RD today so I doubt Lindstrom gets a regular spot.

 

[13to40]

If he spends the season in the AHL or press box, I don’t at all mind this signing.


If this staples him onto the 3rd line for opening night, it means we are due for another lacklustre season.

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

Lame. I know he’s a 7th D but still kind of lame.

 

[Go Wings]

I wantes him gone he is useless and does nothing well. But with this cheap contract they can easily bury him in the minors (where he belongs quite frankly)

 

[Oddbob]

UGH!!! Was hoping he wasn't back.

 

[norrisnick]

UGH!!! Was hoping he wasn't back.

He's not the worst RHD we signed today...

 

[Henkka]

Heard rumours that Lindström was going back to Europe.

Still hanging on, proably won't hurt as a bit experienced kid at our Swedish D mix.

Don't have any hopes for him at NHL anymore, but he would help Edvinsson, Johansson and Wallinder to jump in.

That kind of extra guy has a place, and we can always waive him. Maybe he'll become the next "Lashoff" for Griffins.
