Oscar Lindberg: Signs with KHL club
Oscar Lindberg inked a one-year deal with KHL side Dynamo Moscow on Friday.Lindberg spent the 2019-20 campaign with Zug EV in the Swiss League, where he racked up 14 goals and 16 helpers in 46 outings. The 28-year-old will spend another year away from the NHL after having previously split the 2018-19 season between Vegas and Ottawa. Including a stint with the Rangers, the winger has appeared in 252 NHL contests in which he tallied 79 points and 117 PIM. If he can put together a strong season in the KHL next year, the 2010 second-round pick could make his way back to North America.

Oscar Lindberg: Signs with Swiss club
Oscar Lindberg inked a one-year contract with EV Zug of the NLA on Monday.Lindberg drew into 55 NHL contests with the Golden Knights and Senators in 2018-19, notching nine goals and 20 points over that span. The 27-year-old likely could have secured a one-year deal with an NHL club for the 2019-20 campaign, but he probably would have had to settle for a bottom-six gig -- an option which evidently wasn't as attractive as the promise of a major role with a Swiss team.

Senators' Oscar Lindberg: Sets up goal in win
Oscar Lindberg had the primary assist on Anthony Duclair's opening goal in a 4-2 win over Toronto on Saturday.Lindberg is now up to seven points in 15 games, easily the best showing he's had in any of his three locations. He's still not a great option in most fantasy formats, but he could be a value play in daily leagues when you need someone cheap, as he's likely to go for a low price and seems to be trying to close the year strong and set himself up for free agency.

Senators' Oscar Lindberg: Pots goal in loss
Oscar Lindberg scored a goal on three shots and added three hits in Wednesday's 7-4 loss to the Canucks.Lindberg has settled in fairly well with the Ottawa Senators since being part of the return in the Mark Stone trade. Lindberg has five goals on 13 shots in 11 games since the trade. While no player is capable of shooting 38.4 percent over a large sample size, it's a positive showing for the pending free agent. For the year, he has 17 points (nine goals, eight helpers) in 46 contests, which isn't enough to help in most fantasy formats.

Senators' Oscar Lindberg: Sent to Senators
Oscar Lindberg is heading to Ottawa along with Erik Brannstrom in exchange for Mark Stone, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.This might be a case of the Ottawa Senators absorbing a contract to make the deal work for both sides, as Lindberg is a free agent at the end of the season, with Brannstrom the Senators' real prize. With 10 points in 31 games, things aren't likely to get a lot better for Lindberg on a roster that's now essentially devoid of stars.

Golden Knights' Oscar Lindberg: Imposes physicality in loss
Oscar Lindberg amassed eight hits in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Coyotes.Lindberg has found himself out of the lineup in four out of six games for the Vegas Golden Knights in February. Lindberg typically plays with a physical edge, adding 56 hits to his nine points in 30 games this season, but the feistiness alone may not be enough to keep him in the lineup.

Golden Knights' Oscar Lindberg: Not doing much for Knights
Oscar Lindberg has just two goals and nine points in 2018-19.The Swedish winger has two of his nine points in the month of January, but for the most part, Lindberg has been easy to miss this season. The 27-year-old's shooting percentage of 4.2 is the lowest of his career, as Lindberg has been unable to convert on scoring chances when they've found him. Outside of deeper leagues, Lindberg should not be owned until he becomes a more consistent threat offensively.

Golden Knights' Oscar Lindberg: Watching from press box
Oscar Lindberg has served as a healthy scratch for the Vegas Golden Knights last seven games.In the six games in which Lindberg was in the lineup, he got some looks on the power play (1:39 per game), but is still searching for his first point of the 2018-19 campaign. Once Erik Haula (lower body) or Paul Stastny (undisclosed) are cleared to return, Lindberg could be headed down to AHL Chicago.

Golden Knights' Oscar Lindberg: Two goals in comeback win
Oscar Lindberg scored twice in Saturday's 5-4 preseason home win over the Sharks.Vegas GM George McPhee has assembled a top-six forward group chock-full of established scorers, so Lindberg will likely have to settle for a bottom-six assignment after producing a mere 11 points and minus-11 rating over 63 games with Vegas in 2017-18. It's also conceivable that he'll frequent the press box during the regular season if he happens to hit the skids late in training camp.
