Have to think a prospect like Zary would be in that next best tier.
As far as trading close to $10M in cap space goes, some contracts we could move:
Monahan + Valimaki + Gudbranson = $9.875M
Monahan + Zadorov = $10.125M
Monahan + Valimaki + Dube = $10.225M, but would hate moving two forwards in our top 9. Especially since Dube would likely take Backlund's spot as the 3C if Monahan left.
Monahan + Andersson = $10.925M, but no way the Flames move one of their top 3 D.
Don't see Lucic going anywhere. Probably need a 3rd team to take at least one of the contracts above to make it work.

This would be what I'd try to make a package around.
(Seriously I mean, without trying to push the Buffalo Rasmussens meme)

I personally don't see the net loss you're worried about.
Kylington can take Valimaki's spot on the 3rd LD (I'm higher on him anyway and it sounds like a lot of CP is)
Lindholm and Backlund take over 2C and 3C respectively if Monahan & Dube are moved. Sure they can play 1C and 2C if you really want to shoehorn them there but you need an elite #1 in that 1st line C spot ideally to play with your top offensive wingers.
