Yup - former 1st round pick ( #26 in 2012 ) of Vancouver. He signed a 1 year deal worth $700,000 with Boston on Monday.

Well hell - there's our new 2nd line winger.

I am not sure if a lesser Nordstrom is a good thing.

Pretty confident it isn’t. Just the facts/realities.

I think it’s a reaction to losing Acciari. Kuraly and Acciari were the two options for 4c. Now the two options are Kuraly and Lindholm. There were times during the year where Kuraly looked better at LW. This gives them the option to go back to that: Kuraly - Lindholm - Wagner.

Exactly. If you listen to Sacco, Acciari was loved by the coaching staff because of his center versatility. Loved.

You knew they would instantly replace that.

I'll believe it when I see the numbers after 25 games

How so?

I imagine the 4th line is Kuraly, Nordstrom, Wagner?

I think there is a lot to like about Lindholm's game. Probably a better overall player than Acciari...and I'm a big fan of Acciari.

Lindholm reads the play well, good passer, good on deflections, good agility if not top end speed. Question of course.. is it more of a high end AHL skillset?

I like the signing.

For as much as I was an Acciari fan, there were times in my opinion in certain matchups where he could be a liability. I hope Lindholm, with a more rounded game than Acciari, could be a player you can throw out there and not worry about.

Looking forward to see Lindholm in Boston and to read an article about him.
