With our current prospect pool i have no problem with this trade.
omg that's MASSIVE…
The thing about Lindholm that people don't get because they don't watch Flames games is that he plays the full 200 foot game. Super responsible player no need to worry about him in the defensive side. And Can has great scorers so he will slot in perfectly on the top two lines.
Excited as a Flames fan as this means that we are FINALLY going in SOME direction!! I feel like that's all most of us fans wanted was a direction and a plan. We are getting younger and I'm so hype to see what happens next!
Watch the Canucks match up with the Oilers and get bounced first round. You heard it here first
As a jets fan this pains me, really wanted chevy to go after him
its a win win for both. will miss kuzy hes a very good locker room guy always gotta smile on his face even when he was in the press box, and we've seen he has potential from last season so i wish him nothing but the best in calgary. as for Lindholm on canucks im very happy with it. gives petey a proven point getter and will help mickeyhev get going a lil more and imo a big boost to PP1, 5 all stars on the ice at the same time is crazy to me ( 6 if ur including demko and 7 if u include tocc brainstorming it up on the bench ). frees up cap space for next season to get hronek and petey signed or they can try to work something out with lindholm that also fits around that agenda
Canucks overpaid for Lindholm but if they can go on a run it’ll be well worth it. Not enough credit going to Craig Conroy. Dude got a massive haul
As a Flames fan I'm a little sad, but it was time for Lindy to go. Very impressed with what Vancouver has accomplished this season.
Kind of costly for a loaner.
Its almost as if Calgary is curling its toes up and dying.
Vancouver must consider the 2023-2024 season as its own birthday with all the gifts the Canucks have got this year compared to LAST year.
Expensive rental. I don't think rentals work anymore like it did 10 years ago… the league is more young then it is old… I say 10% of nhl players play top minutes over the age of 35. Carter,Parise,Gio,Suter and many more can't log in top minutes due to the speed of the game. Back in the day it was slower and more physical. Look at a Rick Nash. Had 10-15 good seasons but then that's it. Even a Kessel…no more selenes jagrs chelios due to speed of the game.
This being said… Big W for Cgy. Kuzmenko can easily give u 20G. Great return. But of course Vancounver got their piece for a cup run. Another weapon on already stacked Van that finnaly is clicking is scary. Especially in a rather weak Pacific Divison, I can see them easily making the confrence finals…
I think they could have got him without kuzzy added in the deal.
Lindholm could just be an expensive rental, and if he puts up Tatar in Vegas numbers…
Kind of doubt it, but odds are he does just fine, but the Canucks find a way to lose in RD-1 and Lindholm signs w/ the Rangers or something.
I trust the Canucks scouts and profilers. Dunno if they have too much for Lindholm tho…
Calgary fan here. Really happy about this return. Seeing this trade just made me reminisce about how successful Gaudreau, Tkachuk and Lindholm were just a few years ago… seemed like they were all gonna be Flames for life and this amazing BOA was set to come back. Wished things happened differently but, happy to see Lindy on a good team and a win trade for the Flames, we needed one after the last few years 😂
Allvin went All-in
If Jurmo can improve his defensive game he could become good player
The worst case scenario for Vancouver is that if Lindholm doesnt pan out and Vancouver walks away from him, between him and Tyler Myers gone, thats over 10 million dollars in cap space free.
YEW! that's a heckuva return
W!!!
Great Video, as usual. I agree that it's a bit of an overpay by The Vancouver Canucks
as a canucks fan, it just doesnt sit easy with me seeing the 1st round picks get thrown away like this. canucks will have a couple good seasons and then be back down in the shit for another 10 damn years. i really hope im wrong for even worrying about this
I could see Lindholm popping off with Pettersson + Miller
We had to overpay, since obviously we do not want Colorado to get Lindholm.
Top 5 worst trades in history. I know that Canucks GM is a complete joke, but Vancouver is really doing everything to NOT win a cup. This is self sabotage at its finest.
Honestly good trade for both teams, it will obviously be worth it if the canucks make the conference final but if they don’t it’s kind of a haul for Calgary, nonetheless they clear up cap space to sign a left winger that fits better in free agency
Must suck to get traded from the top of the west to the bottom of it lmao
Think it's a good deal for both teams. I do think the flames got more than I expected, and as a flames fan I'm excited
Overpaid.
If only Edmonton didn't take Kuz to Moxies…
They get to experiment with line combos in a really interesting way and should do so. I’m assuming they’ll play the Petey and Lindholm together, mostly with Mikheyev. If they’re playing shutdown maybe have Lindholm on the wing on his strong side and if chasing goals put Petey on the wing and have him worry less about defence?
If running the Lotto Line I’d think a Lindholm centred line could be a viable match-up line, just as the Joshua-Blueger-Garland line already is. In a game with no penalties being called you could have Pettersson, Miller, Lindholm and Blueger lines all rolling out on quick shifts to utterly stifle the opposition.
It honestly adds a ton of combination flexibility.
If it were mikheyev and hunter not invluded i could understand. Still would rather keep kuzmenko than mikheyev. Hoggy, Lindholm and kuzmenko.
Canucks have 6 players that can crack the roster in a year or 2 so I'm not too upset about the lost in draft picks. Losing hunter however hurts.
second trade with Calgary to screw Oilers over, Oilers living rent free in these Calgary heads lol
It is okay to downplay Laine but none of the hockey channels, that i floow including hockey guy, havent said word about Laine when he went to the program. I don't follow any of them anymore.
Can't wait to see the Canucks get eliminated in the first round of the playoffs
If the Canucks haven’t worked some agreed terms for a future contract extension with Lindholm prior to the signing, then they definitely paid too much.
As much as Kuzmenko has struggled this year, if he stays healthy he will bounce back. I certainly hope so.
Lest we forget the dumpster fire of Miller’s last season, and look at him now.
Confidence and team chemistry can be elusive qualities. Many a GM has looked like a genius or a fool trying to guess what the future holds. Canucks management has been on a roll so far this year. Hopefully they will be vindicated.
It’s a fair point about Pettersson’s struggles with face offs. It’s hardly surprising when you use such a long stick, and a lower flex to get that whip in his shot. I am surprised he can win any draws like that.
