After not recording a point in seven straight games from Nov. 29 to Dec. 12, Lindholm has had at least one point in each of his last three games. Furthermore, after not scoring a goal in 11 straight games, he has now scored in back-to-back contests.
Lindholm continued his streak against the Edmonton Oilers last night (Dec. 19) with a nice goal. He scored in style, too, as he fired a shot from along the boards to beat Oilers goalie Stuart Skinner just 1:07 into the first period.

With this ongoing hot streak, Lindholm now has five goals, 12 assists, and 17 points in 34 games. While he still has more work to do, he is undoubtedly trending in the right direction. It will be interesting to see if he can keep this kind of offensive play up from here.
