If it's retool and try and contend you probably keep Tanev. But if it's some sort of a rebuild, then maybe you're better off getting away from the final two years of Tanev's deal, and instead trade Giordano at the deadline for some value.

No rebuild coming. Not in year 2 of a 3 year deal with Sutter.
Trade Tanev and then what? Go UFA shopping for a RS 2nd pairing guy? Isnt that what you just dealt?
Im not worried about Tanevs contract...maybe the final season he starts slowing?
Im fine just exposing Gio and dont believe Seattle would grab a 38 year old guy with one year left, which leaves the defense in tact to start. Then you see how the season and Gio are going and decide on dealing him next TD if needed.
Im not sure Kylington is someone the Krackens are interested in or not, but sliding them a late round pick to grab him and keep your existing defense together seems reasonable.
