Lindstrom signed a five-year contract with Djurgardens IF of the SHL on Thursday, per RDS.ca.

EDGE Analysis

Lindstrom didn't make any appearances in the NHL in 2024-25, earning 11 points in 42 games with AHL Laval instead. The long-term nature of this contract suggests the 26-year-old defenseman is done pursuing playing opportunities in North America and will ply his trade in his native country for the rest of his career.

Lindstrom signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Canadiens on Wednesday. He was subsequently waived for the purpose of a loan to AHL Laval.

EDGE Analysis

Lindstrom made 46 appearances in the NHL between Montreal and Anaheim last year and logged three goals and 10 points while averaging 15:24 of ice time. He'll likely split time between the AHL and NHL clubs this year.

Lindstrom was released from his professional tryout agreement with Anaheim on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Lindstrom joined the Ducks' training camp on a tryout basis after Anaheim declined to present him with a qualifying offer over the summer. He had three goals and 10 points across 46 contests between Montreal and Anaheim in 2023-24. Lindstrom might still be able to get a two-way contract somewhere, but he will probably begin the campaign with that franchise's AHL squad if that happens.

Lindstrom penned a professional tryout agreement with Anaheim on Thursday, Keith Allen of Detroit Hockey Now reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lindstrom was not qualified by the Ducks in June and comes back on a tryout basis. Lindstrom had three goals and 10 points in 46 regular-season games last season, split between Anaheim and Montreal. He will battle for the seventh spot on the blue line in training camp.

Lindstrom was not qualified by the Ducks and will become an unrestricted free agent Monday, Eric Stephens of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Lindstrom totaled 10 points in 46 games with Anaheim and Detroit last season. He was often a healthy scratch and didn't see consistent playing time. The 25-year-old blueliner has 35 points in 174 career NHL contests.

Lindstrom notched an assist, two shots on goal, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 6-5 shootout loss to the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

Lindstrom played well on the third pairing, and he's earned three helpers over his last nine contests in a similar role. The 25-year-old also brings a physical edge with multiple hits in seven of those games. For the season, Lindstrom has 10 points, 28 shots on net, 56 hits, 56 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a plus-11 rating over 42 appearances between the Ducks and the Canadiens.

Lindstrom logged an assist in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Lindstrom has two helpers over his last six contests. He continues to see steady playing time while Radko Gudas (upper body) is out, and it's unclear when Gudas might return. For the season, Lindstrom has produced nine points, 26 shots on net, 49 hits, 51 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating through 39 appearances between the Ducks and the Canadiens.

Lindstrom notched an assist in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Lindstrom has two helpers over nine appearances in March. He's maintained a bottom-four role for a majority of the time he's been with the Ducks, but he offers little upside on offense for a low-scoring team. The blueliner has eight points, 25 shots on net, 36 hits, 43 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating through 34 appearances between the Ducks and the Canadiens this year.

Lindstrom posted an assist and four PIM in Friday's 4-3 win over the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

Lindstrom has a helper in three of his last five outings. The 25-year-old could see steady playing time while Cam Fowler (face) is out of the lineup, but it's unclear which of Lindstrom or Olen Zellweger will get the last spot on defense when the Ducks are at full health. Lindstrom has seven points, 20 shots on net, 35 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-9 rating through 26 appearances between the Ducks and the Canadiens this season, showing solid defensive capabilities with limited offense.

Lindstrom notched an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Lindstrom saw decent ice time Thursday, but was occasionally skipped in the rotation with Cam Fowler's (face) exit on the first shift of the game leaving the Ducks short on the blue line. The helper was Lindstrom's second in his last four outings. The 25-year-old blueliner has six points, 20 shots on net, 35 blocked shots, 24 hits and a plus-8 rating over 25 appearances between the Ducks and the Canadiens this season. His limited role with no power-play time makes the Swede a non-factor in most fantasy formats.
