For someone who is planted firmly in the "don't trade a hundred point player" camp, this team does look good. I do want to see what Lindholm can do at C for a full season and I think with these lines you either move Monahan and Dube up or you switch Lindholm and Mangiapane. It's tough to build out lines the way you want here because Monahan and Tkachuk just can't skate well enough to play together.
I would go a different direction with the goalie. If you don't make that trade the Flames keep a draft asset and have the money to go after Markstrom, with a 23 man roster there may need to be a Derek Ryan trade to acoomodate but that is what it is. I would probably sign Holtby at 4 before going after Murray in a trade.
Small thing, Glen Gawdin in for Ruzicka there. All around good looking post, well done!
