Value of: Elias Lindholm

[fmrdh]

Solid player but maybe a little underwhelming thus far considering his draft position.

Maybe he could use a change of scenery?

Edmonton? Calgary?

Would love to add him, but given both the Yotes and Canes need young forward talent in general, I'm not sure if there's a trade to be made.

 

[GoldiFox]

Unless a better top-6 C is coming back, Lindholm doesn't move. He has too much utility value as he can play top-to-bottom on the Canes roster as well as the PK.

If anything the Canes would move something like Faulk/Hanifin + Lindholm/Rask for a bigger upgrade at #1C or #1G.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Nugent Hopkins

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

The Oilers aren’t going to trade Nugent-Hopkins or Puljujarvi or the 10th for Lindholm. I’m sure their fans would balk at Yamamoto. A 2nd + does nothing for Carolina, unless the organization is cash strapped beyond recognition. Not good trading partners here, imo.

The strength of Calgary’s prospect pool is on defense, which doesn’t help Carolina. Buying low on Bennett would be interesting, but I''m not sure Carolina is as desperate for a potential center as they might have been this time last year.

Lindholm for Domi could be an interesting change of scenery trade.

Lindholm doesn't need a change in scenery. His stats might not reflect it but he's become a huge part of the offense overall. He's used in all situations, has gotten much stronger and really has started showing some confidence. Play him with better scorers and his points would be higher, he's a pass first guy.

He was put in the NHL at 18 for no good reason, and it is reflected in his overall stats. He would've been much better off waiting a year or two, but it's a sign of how good a player he is that he was developed so poorly and came out the other side a very solid player. He's one of the last guys I would move from the Canes forwards right now.

 

[Tkachuky]

Wouldn't mind him on the Flames. Glad they took him over Monahan though.

 

[SHANNYPLAN]

I’d give up the Leafs 1st and a prospect for him

Johnsson - Lindholm - Nylander would be a solid 2a/2b line

 

[DingDongCharlie]

I'm a fan for Lindholm but I wouldn't trade what Carolina needs being RNH for him.

Lindholm + Faulk for Puljujarvi + 40th + B prospect is the most I'd offer and would likely be quickly declined.

 

[dkollidas]

Faulk & Lindholm for O’Reilly & Justin Bailey?

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Nugent Hopkins

Sure, why not redo Eberle for Strome? Went super well the first time.

 

[MW6]

Hanifin + Lindholm for Braden Holtby?

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Hanifin + Lindholm for Braden Holtby?

Absolutely not. Plus, I would be very surprised if Holtby's NTC didn't have the Canes on it.

 

[GoldiFox]

Hanifin + Lindholm for Braden Holtby?

Did you forget Backstrom? I’d have guessed Lindholm and Holtby were similar value. Hanifin only moves for a #1C.

 

[BangarangxRufio]

The would be interested. What would the be looking for?

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

Hanifin + Lindholm for Braden Holtby?

Yikes!

Easy no.

Lindholm for Domi could be an interesting change of scenery trade.

Domi ended the season with 23 points in the final 28 games and 15 in the final 14 after being paired with Strome and clicking pretty much immediately. Chayka identified him as part of the core going forward.

Domi is probably more movable than OEL, Keller, Strome, and Chychrun, but as much as I'd love to add Lindholm I wouldn't pull the trigger on that swap.

Canes would be overpaying. I agree.

 

[IPreferPi]

Canes would be overpaying. I agree.

I agree that Lindholm has more value due to his positional flexibility, being a RH shot, and his faceoff/defensive ability. Still, I wouldn't add too much to Domi to land him.

Oh. I was unaware that Domi had turned around his season to such an extent.

Not sure what else would be a fit. I’m pretty sure the Canes wouldn’t want to go the futures route unless they had to budgetarily.

That's fair.

FWIW, as much as I'd love to see Chayka outmaneuver a new GM, I do hope your new GM doesn't move Lindholm, and if he does, doesn't sell low on him. I was very high on him in his draft and I think he still can be an excellent Bergeron-like center.

 

[Hansen]

Vancouver should be all over him if he became available. I don't know what the cost would be from us though

Don Waddell is not new.

Well, new to Carolina.
