Maybe that's the right way to go about it when you are trying to change the culture?

I agree to not shut down everyone like Boston did, but no reason to play guys with little to no future here.
No reason the lines can't be:
Gaudreau-Lindholm-Tkachuk
Dube-Ryan-Phillips
Nordstrom-Backlund-Mangiapane
Lucic -Ruzicka-Gawdin
Giordano-Tanev
Kylington -Andersson
Valimaki-Mackey
Personally don't think sitting Nesterov, Stone, Richie, or Leivo means this team is "tanking".
