Re tool. But that means jettisoning the old guard first. The last remnants of the Iginla era. Let the kids roll. Time to loosen up the rank and file.

Lindholm,Tkachuk,Dube,Bennett, Mangiapane can stay. Monahan too as you can't just rip every center out.

Defense is set up fine for the retool, the contract structure in of itself has allowed that to happen.

Clean slate the goalies at the NHL level. AHL (Parsons and Zags) and Wolf are not quite done baking yet. Although, Wolf I suspect is going to be the #1 when the new arena opens.

At this point, Tkachuk probably wants to see some changes before he commits to a long term contract here. And I think its probably time the #1 LW spot is his. Build with that.
