I could see a move where Bennett is traded for a similar aged former top pick that hasn’t really worked out.

I like the Tyson Jost idea.
To Colorado:
Sam Bennett
Oliver Kylington
To Calgary:
Tyson Jost
Greg Pateryn
The cap.hits are pretty close. I am pretty sure Jost has asked out of Colorado as well. Bennett gives them a physical edge for going up against St. Louis and Vegas. Jost needs a fresh start as well, he isn't as physical as Bennett but he is better defensively and would fit nicely on a line with Backlund.
Kylington is another player in need of a fresh start. Pateryn is in the deal for cap reasons, but is a 6'3" RHS D that is currently sitting on Colorado's taxi squad. He might be a better fit on the 3rd pairing than Nesterov.
We probably have to eat a bit of Bennett's salary to make it work.
