I like Coleman, but I can’t imagine you get enough for him to make it worth the trade.
I agree with this. IMO you could look at moving whoever gets the best return out of

Backlund
Toffoli
Mangiapane
Coleman
Dube

I assume that we are only considering a re-tool, not a rebuild so can't make sense trading Lindholm until we know if he wants to test free agency or not.

Unless Dube gets by far the best return, I'd keep him as moving out his deal might not fix the cap next year.

Vladar also would be someone to look at. Might be stuck but I'd love to see Wolf split with Markstrom and it would also be a huge help of the cap.
