I wouldn't say that Van wouldn't be interested in Lindholm but agreed not at that price. His value would be same as Horvat trade last year. Salary dump (Beauvillier), good prospect (Raty) and a 1st (with protection)
That’s what I did…. Don’t forget, VAN’s 1st was projected to be 13th Overall when Bo was Traded, but slid to 17th Overall. Also, Raty was projected to be a mid-1st Round Pick. Beauvillier = Soucy and I added a depth D and Nikoleyev for Pius Suter. Flames’ll need a replacement Centre

The second trade looks terrible. There is no way Canucks are getting rid of Suter and Soucy. Canucks are not interested in Lindholm.
Seriously, you’d prefer Soucy & Suter over Lindholm, are you crazy!? Soucy is expendable with the acquisition of Zadorov and having Ian Cole, while Lindholm >>> Suter and would instantly be VAN’s BEST RW’er

Canucks aren’t giving up that much for pending UFA Lindholm. 1st + Raty/Brzustewicz + salary filler is more reasonable (similar to the Horvat trade)
See the above. Where do you see VAN finishing in the standings this year, especially after acquiring Lindholm!? That pick would be super late and brutal compared to the one NYI received for Horvat, so Lek is a must = mid- 1st
VAN’s 2024-1st is closer to Raty’s value considering how late it will likely be and Soucy = Beauvillier is the salary filler
Flames’ll want/need Suter to help replace the minutes Lindholm does for us, especially on the PK
