Interestingly, this will be the third team they've played for together in the last two seasons. They both started the 2023-2024 season with the Calgary Flames and were later traded—separately—to Vancouver.
Lindholm was a highly sought-after center at the trade deadline, and Zadorov a key blueliner, but Vancouver managed to acquire both of them. Now, the Bruins have snagged them both. What a turn of events and an incredible job by GM Don Sweeny.
