Pagnotta also mentioned that another player the Canucks have interest in, Jake Guentzel, might not be moved by the Penguins if the team is still in the playoff race and that it wouldn't go over very well with Sidney Crosby and Pittsburgh's ownership if they do trade him.
Lindholm, a native of Boden, Sweden, has appeared in 48 games this season for the Flames, putting up 31 points (eight goals, 23 assists), 21 penalty minutes and is a minus-eight. While he's not anywhere near the level he has been at the last few seasons, bringing him into a potent Canucks lineup would certainly help him regain his form and could give the Canucks another option for the first powerplay unit.
