This article is brought to you by bet365! Continuing on the Friday edition of 32 Thoughts – The Podcast, Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman pivoted his chatter from Nikita Zadorov to Elias Lindholm.
The Vancouver Canucks are reportedly ready to offer pending unrestricted free agent center Elias Lindholm a seven-year contract extension worth $7 million annually, according to Elliotte Friedman on “32 Thoughts.” This is a notable decrease from Lindholm’s previous contract expectations, which were around $9 million annually last fall.
After the Vegas Golden Knights 2022-2023 Stanely Cup championship, they had no choice but to make some tough decisions with some of their depth pieces.
The Vancouver Canucks will look to build on their successful 2023-24 season but they have tough decisions to make. That includes the way they approach free agency.
After scoring just 15 goals and 44 points in 75 games during his contract year with the Vancouver Canucks and Calgary Flames, Elias Lindholm may have cost himself upwards of $30 million on his next deal.
Elias Lindholm entered the 2023-24 NHL season as one of the top trade candidates on the market. The Calgary Flames were struggling to remain in the Stanley Cup Playoffs race.
With the Vancouver Canucks’ staff now in off-season mode, their group has several mysteries to solve before July 1. A big question that remains unsolved is what they will do with pending unrestricted free agent (UFA) Elias Lindholm.
The Calgary Flames are at an interesting juncture in their franchise’s history. They have not committed to any sort of rebuild, but they do have some fantastic young players in the pipeline who could help put the team back in the postseason sooner rather than later.
In a perfect world, the Vancouver Canucks would start the 2024-25 schedule with the three centres they finished this past season with. But it’s not a perfect world and for that reason — and others — it’s unlikely the Canucks will be able to retain the services of pending unrestricted free agent Elias Lindholm.
The Vancouver Canucks can sign Elias Lindholm at any time – and any other team can on July 1st. He might not be the fan favourite, but his impact is greater than any hit thrown by Nikita Zadorov.
The Boston Bruins want to add a top center to the mix as they try to work toward actual postseason success.
The Boston Bruins are poised to use NHL free agency and the NHL trade market this offseason to improve their center depth. As reported here on more than one occasion this past season, the Bruins tried to acquire center Elias Lindholm.
When free agency begins on July 1st, expect the Boston Bruins to be aggressive when it comes to making improvements to their roster. The Bruins finished the 2023-24 season with a record of 47-20-15, finishing second in the Atlantic Division with 109 points.
The Vancouver Canucks got a taste of postseason success this spring and now they're hungry.
One of the toughest aspects of the free agent market to project has always been: How much money are these players earning or costing themselves with their play over the course of a season?

It was fun while it lasted. The Vancouver Canucks’ 2023-24 season came to an end at the hands of the Edmonton Oilers, dropping Game 7 by a 3-2 scoreline.
Elias Lindholm didn’t have the greatest regular season after he was added to the Vancouver Canucks roster at the NHL Trade Deadline. He has since made up for it and became a standout performer for the Canucks this postseason.
The Vancouver Canucks made a big splash on January 31st, ahead of the trade deadline landing Elias Lindholm. They sent Andrei Kuzmenko, their 2024 first-round pick, a conditional 2024 fourth-round pick, and two prospects to the Calgary Flames for Lindholm.
As we head into a Friday set of games in the NHL playoffs, we forget about goals and turn to our expectation of shots, both on goal, and having them blocked.
The Oilers had not lost a game during the entire regular season in which they had led by two or more goals after two periods. But that was the regular season.
How are the Canucks up 3-1 in this series? They have used three goalies — each has won a game — and have a combined 32 shots on goal in the last two games ... both wins. Their 4-3 overtime victory over the Predators on Sunday was at least as improbable and probably more so.
Elias Lindholm has been out of the Vancouver Canucks lineup with an apparent wrist injury since March 25th. It was hard for Canucks fans to gauge the severity of the injury as it was first declared a maintenance day, which he played the next game against his former team Calgary Flames.
One month ago, the Canucks acquired forward Elias Lindholm from the Flames in a trade to bolster the organization’s top-six.
