LeBrun on Insider Trading talking Elias Lindholm: “I do think he’s going to get traded closer to March 8 and the two teams that come to mind for me are the Boston Bruins and Colorado Avalanche, both could use that fit”

Honestly can’t wait. Even though lindholm has been playing like ass he is still worth a pretty penny excited to see the return. Hopefully will help the tank as well.
Avs have much better pieces.
Bruins have conditions on their next 2 1sts.
I would take ritchie over lohrei or lysell.
Poitras would be really nice but I don’t see bruins moving him now.
Conroy may value Lohrei higher since he’s pretty much NHL ready.
I’m scared to death it’s going to be some shit like a late first and a prospect that was never going to make their team. In other words, something completely forgettable.
Unless Lindolhm wants out (which we don’t know) he won’t be traded for anything less than another center player or center prospect. Conroy (and any GM) will just sign him, as we have the cap space and you can always trade him later if you need to, thats how valuable centers are in the NHL.
I don’t think Colorado or Boston have what it takes to be honest.
With the way Zary, Greer, Wolf, Duehr, Pospisil, and to a less extent, Ruzinka have been playing, selling is palatable. The potential of Coronado, Pelts, Honzek, and a few other prospects makes it easier too.
I’m all for trading away Lindholm, Vladar, and Hanifin.
Re-sign Tanev, Greer, and Kylington.
Having Markstrom, Weegz, Kadri, Andersson and Backs as veteran support through a quick rebuild. Just need to draft a #1 centre, a scoring winger, and top 4 defensemen and the Flames are right back in the mix.
I guess if we sent him to Colorado for Mack, Makar and a 1st I wouldn’t be too upset
Sooner would be better but I get it. Conroy needs to nail the returns on both Lindholm and Hanifin, not only for the sake of the organization but also his own future.
Johansen is not working out in Colorado. Every shift is like that lazy PLD shift in Columbus, so hopefully it doesn’t involve him.
I think Winnipeg will be in the mix for sure. Then depending on if Minnesota is in the playoff hunt they might try to get Lindholm as well. This isn’t a 2 team race, Lindholm is dirt cheap and has no trade protection. Plus he can also play the wing. Any team looking for a forward will have interest
I wish Boston would get him but he they won’t they’re content losing in the first round they also need a d- man because they’ve been letting up late goals
