Ducks decline.

Hard to think Buldoc/Salo or even Wilde aren't better options

Anyways, no way ANA retains 50% for a 1st ,cap dump and ,at this point, a C teir prospect that might develop into a 20g 50p guy. As for Newkirk, maybe a bottom 6 guy just not enough for ana to swallow 50%

With 50% retention on Lindholm, Anaheim can get a far better return then that.

What do you think Lindholm is worth in a trade? I mean in general, not specifically to NYI.

Probably at minimal, Expiring contract B prospect a 2022 1st round pick and 2023 2nd round pick at the very least.

If he had another year or two left on his contract I'd agree and we're probably splitting hairs, but I think the proposed trade basically gives you that. Yes it's a 2022 3rd over a 2023 2nd, but I personally don't think Lindholm is worth a 1st and a 2nd as a rental. Don't forget 2022 is supposed to be a dynamite draft. This is a pretty solid return.
