Canes impressed by Lindholm's intangibles

Very complimentary quotes via The News & Observer from a few Carolina Hurricanes for Elias Lindholm, the team's first round draft pick last summer.

Jay Harrison: “That’s one of the things about ‘Lindy’ that’s really been impressive this year. He has incredible vision to match his positional play. He knows the game the way a 19-year-old really shouldn’t know the game. When you see intangibles you can’t teach in a guy who’s got the confidence to do them at 19, you know he’s very special.”

Jeff Skinner, who knows a thing or two about being a high pick coming with high expectations: “He has that ability to slow the game down,. He plays the game on a different level from kids his age. He thinks the game on a different level.”
