I think if lindholm is in fact available, chances are we are not trading him to a team in the western conference that would potentially take a playoff spot away unless there is a huge over payment.
Most likely hed be heading east, and I'm guessing teams like buffalo detroit boston and Toronto would be bidding on him. I also don't know if I'm buying the equal defencemen part... I think we should look for a solid top 4 in his own end to play with vatanen or fowler, and then a good forward/forward prospect to go along with it. I just cant see us trading him in the west if we do trade him unless the team is paying an amount the fan base isn't going to like.
Considering the Ducks cannot take back any significant salary cap we have the following.
Boston does not have the cap space to sign him;
Detroit does not have the cap space to sign him;
Buffalo does not have the cap space to sign him;
Toronto does not have the cap space to sign him
Maybe if the trade was for only picks and prospects that can sit in the A and not affect the Ducks salary, this will work
