I think you really need a harder shake than what Colorado did. We have been in futility a bit longer than they were.

I think it shakes out that we keep 2 out of these: Tkachuk-lindy-Gaudreau-Monahan (I would guess Lindy and Monahan)

Then keep: Andersson-Valimaki-Tanev

Then: Markstrom

Everyone else on the roster is fair game for a a good value trade. Not fire sale, but try to use the pieces to make it good.

It's difficult to define if that's a blow up. We would be trading a captain and an assistant captain at least. We keep very few of the current roster players, but hopefully dont throw out the proverbial baby in the bathwater.
