Lindbäck has played really well in Finland. I mean REALLY well. Last four games he has 130 saves, only one goal allowed and obviously three shutouts. With a team that's arguably the worst in the league.

To be honest, I have never seen such a good goaltending in my life. And I have seen hockey quite a bit. I talked with the goalie coach of Ilves, his team, and he ran out of positive adjectives trying to describe him.

Of course the quality of shooters is better in the NHL, but I'm sure Tampa's goaltending problems are over, he's the real deal.

Good to know the talent is there. Now we just have to see him do it over 60+ games in the middle of the NHL circus where he is the expected saviour of Tampa's crease.

Great to hear. Thanks for the update.

Hope he is the backbone of both my teams for years to come.

GREAT to hear! Any little positive thing is great this time of year. I nabbed him the day before the cut off for signing players last year hoping he'd get dealt.

TB has solidified it's D and Lindback has a ton of potential. I expect good numbers for him in the coming years, potentially near the top of the league within 2 or 3 seasons.

The thing I like most about Lindback right now is that I own him.

Yeah, he hasn't proven yet that he can sustain this kind of production at the NHL level but in any pro league where you stop 130 of 131 shots over 4 games there is some substance to the man.

I recently acquired him in one of my leagues. Thanks for sharing the info!

Hmmm... After he was dealt to TB I gave him away for Huberdeau. Both unproven, but I simply hope I won't curse myself in a year or so....
Would you do that deal still?

Yes, I would do Huberdeau for Lindback.
