On paper looks like a very solid signing for the team to build into the playoffs.
Lindgren was brought into Sterjen Hockey this season as the Injury Cover replacement for ex-Panther Brendan Ellis earlier this season and did pretty well bagging 9 points in 10 games. Little surprised they let him go when his contract expired on December 10th.

Hopefully he brings some quality on the back end that helps us break teams down whilst taking care of his own end as well. Good work from the club

Played a decent standard and looks a good player. I'll drop the first less than positive comment....
Think it could be another square peg for a round hole. We need a stay at home Dman whos only focus is defending. This guy is almost a point a game player. He has also only played 10 games this season.
Hope it works out well and he does a good job though.

Fair point, but he’s not a forward playing D, so there’s positive.

If it means Panthers gassed or benched Brassard it will be an upgrade,look at it that way.

I think based on where this roster is at, an offensive Dman will probably be more beneficial because this team defends so poorly as a 5 that bringing in one stay at home Dman will probably not make much difference. Hopefully it also means no more of the 5 forward pp unit

Looks a good signing to me. As mentioned on the release hopefully he helps us get out of our zone more smoothly too! Interesting to note that he played with Hammond in 20/21, wonder if there’s any chemistry there. Also played with Brendan Ellis and Cangelosi. Be intrigued to see reports from Austin’s dad who I know used to post on here! As with most signings who come with a good pedigree/ CV, hopefully he comes in, hits the ground running, loves playing for us and is a long term success!

Who’s the healthy scratches going to be then ? Ricci, Lagrone and Hopkins I reckon. Play Hazeldine on D and move Moore and Kelsall onto the 4th line.

Panthers need more offence from the blue line .. Just more quality on the backend in general will hopefully improve our fortunes. If he can help to maintain offensive zone pressure and is calm and composed whilst being forechecked then hopefully he’ll be successful for us

Interesting that some of his most productive seasons have come whilst he’s been in Norway, yet he’s never made a go of it in the Allsvenskan. Another positive point, he was the top point scoring defenceman in the AlpsHL last season.

Has anyone checked on Tex? Seems after every time a team makes a signing the old line gets churned out such as "wakey wakey panthers" well not you have your wish, And it isn't a lazy looking signing either

Despite what some may think of him he offers a different dynamic on the forward lines and is held in pretty good regard. Not saying it couldn’t happen but I think there maybe some ahead of him in the list of who will sit.

I just feel that Anderson and Puffer have both been playing well on a line with Myers, an effective 3rd line

Puffer plays well defensively, which is as well when Brassard is behind the oppositions net and then chasing to get back into position.

So that only leaves Levin and Sorensen then and can’t see that either. So Brassard it has to be ! Yessss good move 😁👍

Has to be Anderson who’s scratched. He offers absolutely nothing. Panthers have a real knack of holding on to at least one dud of a forward each season and he’s the one this time. Last season it was Hedberg. Before that it was Rheault for two seasons. Bussieres before him and Matt Carter before him

Carters production knocks spots off Puffer and Anderson.
