Elias Lindholm emerged as the Flames’ most lethal sniper in 2021–22

Elias Lindholm is the only member of the Calgary Flames’ top line under contract for the 2022–23 season.

Johnny Gaudreau and Matthew Tkachuk will undoubtedly both receive significant raises this summer, but there’s a decent case to be made that Lindholm is the Flames’ most underpaid player.

The 2022 Frank J. Selke Trophy runner-up just finished the fourth season on the six-year deal he signed with the Flames back in 2018. Lindholm makes an average of just $4.85 million per year on his current contract and it wouldn’t be surprising to see him sign for twice that figure when he becomes an unrestricted free agent in 2024.
