So far, Lindholm has been making a great first impression with his new teammates. This is especially so with superstar David Pastrnak, as he compared Lindholm's play to two Bruins legends while speaking to reporters. Here is what Pastrnak had to say about Lindholm:

BOSTON — The Bruins ’ highest-profile free agent signing was missing from Friday’s training camp practice. Elias Lindholm, who signed a 7-year, $7.75 million (average annual value) contract with Boston on Day 1 of free agency was missing from Day 2 of practice.

The veteran is a solid 200-foot player with offensive flair and a defensive mind-set, and he has long been coveted by the Bruins.

The Boston Bruins were back on the ice today as they continue the beginning stages of their training camp. However, a notable newcomer was not present for the practice: Elias Lindholm. Thankfully, Lindholm's absence does not appear to be anything serious.

Bruins general manager Don Sweeney expressed confidence that Lindholm will thrive in Boston, especially in a top-line role alongside the team's other elite players. The GM did so while addressing reporters in July and discussing his franchise's offseason additions.
