Description

I'm curious what market value of Esa Lindell would be as he goes into his RFA year in summer 2019 - is this close?

The line-up shown is basically depth chart going into 2019-20 season.

Free Agent Signings

RESERVE LIST		YEARS	CAP HIT
Poehling, Ryan		3	$925,000
Romanov, Alexander		3	$925,000

Trades

MTL

Lindell, Esa
2019 3rd round pick (DAL)

Additional Details:

Habs get the established top 2 left D they need. Lindell needs to be re-signed in the next year, so cap hits may cancel out

DAL

Mete, Victor
Tatar, Tomas ($800,000 retained)

Additional Details:

Stars get proven top 6 forward depth, and a younger but very promising young left D to play behind Heiskanen and Honka.

Buyouts

Steve Mason: $1,366,667
Jordie Benn: $366,667
Antti Niemi: $316,667
Kenny Agostino: $233,333

As a DAL fan I wouldn't move Lindell. Our D is pretty solid as of now. As a team, losing him would weaken us quite much, even if Tatar and Mete would be nice...

Also "playing behind Honka" isn't actually true, since Honka is our healthy scratch. It's funny that we have 3 roster d-men sidelined as of now (Methot, Johns, Carrick) and still Honka is a 7th d-man...

In a couple of years when Heiskanen is peaking perhaps Lindell could become a trade chip. But you're correct right now he's too valuable to the Stars to consider moving him for offensive depth.
