Lindholm has been more than fine in his role. How is he a "swing and a miss"? I don't see why Boston would pick up another 4th liner for depth when they have Kuraly, Wagner, Nordstrom, Lindholm, Ritchie and Backes here already. They have guys in Providence that could fill the role in as well.
Congrats to Hughes on the recall. Look forward to seeing him.
We have 3 good ones who will miss a good amount of time between the three of them.
Lindholm- not good feel free to disagree. Not physical no jam. Signing didn't hurt us and he has experience but hes can skate with kids in Prov. I guess hes insurance at C if they don't want to use a kid or promote Kuraly should one of the top 3 go down.
Ritchie- Not that physical despite the size. Don't love him on the 4th. Top 9 or press box IMO.
Backes- Picked up another concussion if you didn't hear I'm just gonna say no comment.
This should be Brendan Gaunce's shot but he got seriously gooned. IDK if hes back playing for Providence yet or what the timeline is but I wouldn't 'rush' to give him his chance on the big club. Shame hes the interesting one from what Nucks fans had to say.
My guess is a 4th liner gets added before Christmas (and people complain its not Taylor Hall.)
