NHL Rumors: Elias Lindholm, Steven Stamkos, and the Boston Bruins

Elias Lindholm’s general manager of the Flames said, “Now we just have to figure out the financial details.
“.

According to Tom Gulitti of NHL.com, Elias Lindholm’s contract extension negotiations with the Calgary Flames are still at an impasse.
This was stated by general manager Craig Conroy yesterday.

“It’s just like any negotiation; you’re constantly back and forth.
They are aware of the value. We have a general idea of where we believe it to be, but we are still not there.
“.

Conroy is hopeful that they can reach an agreement because Lindholm has stated that he wants to resign.

“When you see other signings around the League, you think maybe that’s going to help the cause.
He has only publicly stated that he wants to play for the Calgary Flames at this point in the season.
Now we just need to calculate the dollar amounts.
“.

NHL rumors: Will Elias Lindholm’s presence cause any concern in Calgary?

Could Steven Stamkos again pique the Boston Bruins’ interest?

Jimmy Murphy of Boston Hockey Now writes that Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney made an effort to sign Steven Stamkos in 2016, when he was just about to become a free agent and had the opportunity to speak with teams. The top contenders were the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Detroit Red Wings.

Should Stamkos not re-sign with the Tampa Bay Lightning, could the Boston Bruins become interested in him once more?

An NHL executive source recalled to Boston Hockey Now on Sunday that “Sweeney pushed hard for Stamkos that year and two years later for Tavares.”.
I fail to see how Sweeney won’t at least try to acquire him if he becomes available on the trade market.
“.

No top center for the Bruins is available. Mark Scheifele, a recent Winnipeg Jets re-signing, had been mentioned in connection with them. Elias Lindholm has been mentioned in connection with them, but he might not be dealt and instead re-sign with the Calgary Flames.
