I don't think switching out one player does much of anything though. By this time next year they need to have all three of Monahan, Giordano, and Gaudreau traded in my opinion and be working towards pretty much changing out every player within the next 4 years. But I don't see that happening.

Backlund is 6 years older..
You don’t keep Backlund over Monahan even if he has struggled lately.
