1. Trade Tkachuk + for Eichel. The + might have to include Mangiapane or Dube and a draft pick and that would suck, but elite talent makes fans forget about middle six players pretty quickly.

2. Keep Monahan. If you can tade him for good value, like another player who needs a change then consider it, but I think he will have his most value at the TDL with an expiring contract and hopefully he can bounce back next season a bit.

3. Sign Jamie Oleksiak.

4. Expose Giordano. I'm not convinced Seattle would take him. He may have high value at the TDL so they may just for that reason, but I have doubts that Francis would take a guy with a family who has spent his whole career in one city, just to trade later.

5. Re-sign Ryan. He is a useful player and the only issue most have with him is salary, which was inflated as his one big ticket UFA contract. Offer him a deal under $2M.

6. Give Ruszicka and Pelletier a shot.

7. Re-sign Rittich to a back-up level contract. He might not want to come back given how little he played behind Markstrom, but if he decides the grass was pretty green in Calgary, he may be an option.
