Elias Lindholm might be saying goodbye to Vancouver. His wife dropped a not-so-subtle hint on social media by sharing a photo of their family packing up, captioning it "last day in Vancouver."
When a curious fan asked why they were leaving, she spilled the beans about it being related to his next contract and impending free-agent status. It appears Lindholm is headed for the open market.
However, it's possible a replacement for Lindholm in Vancouver could be on the way in the form of a homecoming. Enter, Tyler Toffoli.
According to David Pagnotta, both the Vancouver Canucks and the Los Angeles Kings (two of Toffoli's former teams) are keen on signing him as an unrestricted free agent this summer.
Add the Montreal Canadiens into the mix, and it seems like a reunion with one of his former teams is highly likely for Toffoli and his wife.
It's a testament to Toffoli's impact that his former teams are all vying for his return. He knows how to leave a lasting impression.
As for his stats, Toffoli, who 32, had a solid season racked up 55 points in 79 games, with 33 goals to his name. He's been quite the journeyman, playing for a handful of teams in recent years, including the Kings, Canucks, Canadiens, Flames, Devils, and Jets.
