Florida did the leg work for somebody else. Someone will claim him, and I hope it is Detroit! He has to be better than DeKeyser! And certainly, more mobile than Staal!

Haha. I know what you mean. That perplexed me at first, too. But reading George Richard’s article, it says he has to pass through waivers.

I’m wondering if there’s some kind of clause with with these types of signings right now?

It's called return waivers and it is in place to prevent teams from "stashing" players away in Europe all season.

Idk, he’s the type of Dman the Panthers could use.
No risk, and he is left handed, sounds like he could help out.

For Panthers fans: Lindbohm is a solid depth signing. Played a strong own-zone game with Finland at the recent Olympics and he can play a physical game.

Zito has already traded away some upcoming early round draft picks, idk how “big” he’s gonna go at the TDL.

@JamesonCoop
Lundell on Lindbohm, who he won silver with at the Worlds in 2021:

“He’s a really funny guy. I think he fits well here. He’s a big, strong D-man that moves the puck well. He plays a good 2-way game. … I texted him when I saw the news. I think he’ll love it here. He’s excited.”
