Lindholm (undisclosed) will not play against the Kings on Monday.

Lindholm missed Vancouver's morning skate on Monday due to what the team deemed to be a maintenance day and will be unavailable for tonight's game against the Kings. The 29-year-old has struggled during his first 22 games out West, with five goals, nine points, 31 SOG, four PIMs and a -5 plus/minus.

Lindholm (maintenance) will be a game-time decision on Monday vs. Los Angeles.

Lindholm missed Vancouver's morning skate due to a maintenance day and will be a game-time decision on Monday as the Canucks take on the Kings. The 29-year-old has struggled during his first 22 games out West, with five goals, nine points, 31 SOG, four PIMs and a -5 plus/minus.

The Canucks have acquired Lindholm from the Flames in exchange for Anderi Kuzmenko, Hunter Brzustewicz, Joni Jurmo, a 2024 first-round pick, and a conditional 2024 fourth-round draft pick.

With his contract set to expire at the end of this season, Elias Lindholm was long rumoured to be one of the top trade targets in the NHL this season, and that came to fruition on Wednesday when the Canucks acquired him in exchange for Andrei Kuzmenko, a pair of prospects, a first-round draft pick, and a conditional fourth-round draft pick. Lindholm had struggled to produce at his usual clip in Calgary this season, registering just nine goals and 23 assists in 49 games despite playing over 20 minutes a night. It's been reported that Lindholm did not agree to any sort of extension with Vancouver as part of the deal, so he does appear to be a rental for the time being. You can expect him to centre one of Vancouver's top two lines, though we likely won't get an official projected lineup until after the All-Star break.

Lindholm (illness) is on the ice for warmups and is expected to play against the Wild on Tuesday.

Lindholm is dealing with an illness which prevented him from participating in practice on Monday and made him a game-time decision on Tuesday against the Minnesota Wild. Lindholm scored two points (2G / 0A) on Saturday, his first two-goal performance of the season, snapping a three-game pointless skid. Lindholm's 17 points (7G / 10A) in 24 games have him pacing for his lowest point total since joining the Flames in the 2018-19 season.

Elias Lindholm will return to the Flames' lineup after a one-game absence (upper body).

Lindholm missed the Flames' previous game due to an upper-body injury but will return Wednesday as they take on the Vancouver Canucks. Lindholm had a point-per-game last season but has started slowly in 2022-23, with nine goals, 23 points and 67 SOG through his first 28 games prior to the injury.

Lindholm was forced to leave Thursday's game and did not return.

Lindholm received a vicious slash from Darren Helm and left Thursday's win but it doesn't sound like the injury is overly serious. Lindholm is not expected to practice on Friday but has not been ruled out for Saturday's game in Los Angeles.

The Flames acquired Elias Lindholm and Noah Hanifin from the Hurricanes for Dougie Hamilton, Michael Ferland and Adam Fox.

The Hurricanes were reportedly far apart in their contract negotiations with Lindholm, who is an RFA. With no contract in sight, the Hurricanes elected to move on from the former No.5 overall pick (2013), who has averaged just 14 goals and 28 assists (42 points) over the last four seasons. Matt Cane of HockeyGraphs predicts a five-year extension worth $24.98M ($4.978M AAV) for Lindholm.

Lindholm (upper-body) is expected to return to the Hurricanes’ lineup on Tuesday.

Lindholm has missed the last five games with an upper-body injury, but is expected to replace Ty Rattie in the lineup tonight vs. the Blue Jackets. Prior to getting hurt, Lindholm had a three-game point streak, picking up two goals and two assists. Lindholm has 13 points (4G / 9A) in 30 games this season.

Lindholm (upper-body) is questionable to play Tuesday vs. New Jersey.

Lindholm missed Saturday’s game in Tampa Bay, but head coach Bill Peters said Lindholm is “close” and could go through the morning skate on Tuesday. Lindholm has scored two goals with two assists in his last three games, but if he can’t go vs. the Devils tonight, Andrej Nestrasil will remain on a line with Jordan Staal.
