Not for that they don't. First line centers don't come cheap!

You want Lindholm the offer needs to start with Johnson + a 1st or Marchenko + a 1st. If the main asset is Marchenko then add Sillinger, if it's Johnson another add will do.
Calgary won't be throwing in Hanifin for free either, you have to pay for him too. The going price for comparable defensemen is a 1st, a decent roster player and a good prospect.

Don't like the price? Then Columbus won't be getting a 1st line center.

For both of them? Not a chance

Actually take out Lindholm and Roslovic and this is about right for Hanifin alone... With an extension.

Take out Hanifin and Chinakhov, then its a fair deal.

Don't like the price, don't even want Lindholm so find that package somewhere else. CBus has a true 1C of the future in Fantilli that won't cost the extension amount of Lindholm. Not to mention Lindholm would really be a low end 1C or high end 2C. Good player, but pass.

We aren't looking to trade him at all we intend to extend him.

Honestly, hopefully you guys do. But you said if Columbus doesn't like the price, they won't get a first line center.

We are in agreement, Calgary doesn't want to trade Lindholm, they want to sign him. And Columbus doesn't want Lindholm, so they won't trade for him. Simple enough.
