Minnesota has needed a top center since forever. Lindholm may not want to re-sign in Calgary. What would it take for Minnesota to acquire Lindholm?

*Deal would be contingent on Lindholm willing to sign with Minnesota past this upcoming season.

I just don't see the right pieces in Minny honestly. Your top prospect is a goalie. So is ours. The other young pieces I'd have interest in I don't see you guys parting with.

I feel like the wild have 1 of the top pools in the league…. I imagine they can make some nice offers for lindholm if they wanted to

I’d definitely want more than that. Pretty underwhelming.


For Lindholm he would be
No actually he's not. Minnesota isn't trading a stud top 4d born in Minnesota and beloved for him..your kidding if you think a Minnesota born beloved player and whose earned a top 4 d role in his rookie year is getting traded. Clearly don't know anything about brock

He earned a top 4 role? He didn’t even play 10 games. If you’re not making a B prospect available for a #1C Selke candidate you need to reevaluate your thinking.

I wouldn't trade Lindholm for Faber either. Yes we do know about him. He never once played in Minnesota's top 4, so perhaps it's you who doesn't know anything about him. Lindholm is a Selke level 1C. You don't trade that for a future #4 defenseman at best.

Faber is a waste of time in a Lindholm conversation. We'd be looking at a Boldy type, not a Faber type. It's why I said Minnesota doesn't have the pieces.

He's not a prospect. He literally played on every Minnesota playoff game and taking over Minnesota topb4d. He's the reason Dumba is being let go. He was never a B prospect. No, people like yourself need to re-evaluate if you think MIN will give up a top 4d and key Piece in Minnesota trade of Fiala for free agent to be. Next Jobas Brodin also. Lol dude, only hf people have the most unrealistic ask and wish list..

Someone explain how Elias LIndholm, who had 64 points in 80 games last season playing o-zone heavy starts is a "number one center" while Joel Eriksson Ek who had 61 points in 78 games with some of the toughest lifting the league is something else.

Lindholm's a nice player but he's not a huge improvement worth sending away a legit young player like Faber.

every winger who has ever played with lindholm has had career high production (except Huberdeau). And he’s a top 5 defensive Center in the league. How is that not a top line C?

Dont think Minnesota with the buyouts are a viable option.

But for the sake of discussion, I’d ask for:

Rossi
2023 1st
2024 2nd

Just don’t see it happening with your cap issues. You wouldn’t be able to re-sign him.

So according to you, Hartman is also? Zuccarello had a career high playing with him. That doesn't determine a top line C. He's not better than Eriksson ek

Eriksson Ek is one of the most underrated players in the league. I absolutely think he's a 2 way beast. He's like Backlund and Danault. Saying Lindholm is good defensively doesn't mean he's better defensively than Eriksson Ek. EE is right there with Danault and Backlund for the best in the league defensively. I'm not sure which of the 3 is best, but EE is right there.

Lindholm is a 2 way C. EE put up big numbers playing with one of the top 5 offensive players in the league. Lindholm when he did that scored 40+ goals and 80+ points. I'd say they are equivalent players. EE is better defensively, EL better offensively.

He's actually not. It's funny how Canadian teams fans reveal their ignorance! Joel Eriksson ek is a complete stud two way C. Lind abd Eriksson ek had the same points but please troll more
Yes, Canadian fans know nothing about hockey. Give me a break. EE is a beast defensively, good offensively. This conversation was about you saying Faber is a top 4 defenseman. He's not. Full stop. Eriksson Ek is a top 3 defensive center in the league. He's broken 50 points once in his career. He's not Elias Lindholm offensively. That's just a fact.
