Confirmed Trade: [VAN/CGY] Elias Lindholm for Andrei Kuzmenko, Hunter Brzustewicz, Joni Jurmo, 2024 1st, cond. 2024 4th

[Grub]

This is a good package. A first, a NHL roster player who just scored 70+ points last year and isn't super old, a prospect that Canuck fans said was good (I have no idea), and a two other small pieces.

Leads the OHL in scoring as a defencemen. So he should be good i guess.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

wow, Flames killed this.

 

[Russian_fanatic]

Seems like a win win trade.

Calgary did very good, and Vancouver just became contenders in my eyes.

 

[MardyBum]

Nice haul for Calgary, Lindholm was struggling but the change if scenery could do him well. Think he'll fit nice with Tocchet

 

[Commander Clueless]

Boom!

It would have been nice to see Tanev back in Vancouver too, for nostalgia...

 

[credulous]

why is joni jurmo in this deal

what a weird addition

 

[Mobiandi]

It's a good trade for both teams

 

[Mitch nylander]

Wow that seems like a big package. Fantastic return from Calgary.

The Leading OHL scorer who's a dman, a 1st, a guy who scored 70 last year, a 4th and 6'3 defensive d prospect

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

Pretty standard rental value. Lindholm didn't warrant the Horvat/Hall/Duchene return (Mid-1st and B-prospect). Late 1st and B-prospect it is.

 

[Banded Peak]

Feels like a bad return to me.

For a rental? What exactly were you expecting.

 

[GirardSpinorama]

Canucks should have sold high on Kuzmenko last year instead of selling low now.

 

[Breakers]

Wow

Expensive

 

[thefutures]

Pretty good prospect plus 1st for a rental. Good for calgary

 

[Phrasing]

Good trade for Flames. On the fence for the Canucks because of the inclusion of Brz.

 

[BoHorvat 53]

Feel like it's a perfectly fair deal for both sides, especially when you consider what Ryan O'Reilly got at last year's deadline.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Big package, good return for Calgary. And I'm good with it on our end.

Brz + 1st to move Kuz & get Lindholm. I like it. Wonder the conditions on the pick.

 

[LeProspector]

Dime a dozen is probably harsh but yeah, get ready for a barrage of newly minted Hunter experts spouting off his junior league stats and NHLe graphs.

Unfortunate, but true.

Joni Jurmo though I can see him in a bottom-pairing role in the NHL one day.

 

[2023FriendshipTour]

Lindholm was gone and he's a rental this is a solid deal for both teams.

 

[Atoyot]

Hunter is a good prospect
Leading the OHL in scoring as a 19 years old defenceman

This biggest concern is his skating ability, pretty average by pro standard AND he’s not going to get the PP opportunities with Hughes and Hronek on the team

He's leading defense in scoring, not the league.

Leads the OHL in scoring as a defencemen. So he should be good i guess.

He is not, he is 3rd in scoring.

 

[Nevins]

Calgary Wins all the way…

 

[Foppberg]

Bit of an overpayment, but a good trade. Vancouver going all in.

 

[FlameChampion]

Calgary wins

 

[VIPettersson]

Too much, I could see Kuzmenko being a negative asset at this point. I thought Bruz is worth at least a late 1st , plus another late 2024 1st , loses a contract in Joni (nothing burger) and a 4th for a UFA potential rental. Also considering the type of year Lindholm is having makes me shiver.

 

[Grub]

Wow that seems like a big package. Fantastic return from Calgary.

The Leading OHL scorer who's a dman, a 1st, a guy who scored 70 last year, a 4th and 6'3 defensive d prospect

Joni Jurmo is a bust, but yea the other pieces including Brzu is a good haul for Calgary.

Win win situation. Hopefully we get 2022 Lindholm.

Nice haul for Calgary, Lindholm was struggling but the change if scenery could do him well. Think he'll fit nice with Tocchet

He better put his work boots on. If he plays the way he has been, Tocchet will bench him too
