They have a ton of attractive assets for trade if they decide to go the Nashville route and rebuild.
If they are looking at Fenton I think that makes it doubly as likely.
Top assets for trade IMO:
Staal
Spurgeon
Brodin
Dubnyk
to a lesser extent
Nino
Foligno
Coyle
But I don't think it's possible to do anything substantial with that roster with Parise and Suter there. Parise specifically is owed 32 million in cash over the next 4 years.
A buyout would mean having a 7+ - 8+ million buy cap hit in 5-8 years from now which is basically when one would assume a rebuild would be coming into form.
Horrendous.
