Either promote Mitch Love or bring in Bruce Boudreau.
Explore the trade market for Toffoli, Backlund, and Tanev. Honestly none should be in the long term plans based on their age and should be moved.
Hanifin and Lindholm. Explore extensions, if the ask is too high then they should be shopped as well.
Zadorov can go either way in terms of keeping him vs selling him.
Try to extend Phillips and give him an actual look. Extend Stecher.
Don't spend money on UFAs...leverage any cap space to either take a contract on from a team needing to clear cap or save it to help faciliate trades in the season.
This can be the base for the roster - and depending on the market you can look to add some veterans but don't be afraid to start the season with a young team.
Huberdeau - Lindholm - Dube
Mangiapane - Kadri - Phillips
Coleman - Ruzicka - Coronato
Pelletier - Zary - Duehr
Hanifin - Anderson
Kylington - Weegar
Zadorov - Stetcher
Gilbert
Markstrom

I like this as well and would be looking at using the cap space to use all 3 of my trades where I can retain salary.
What's the return on Tanev, Backlund and Toffoli if you retain 50%? Likely looking at having a bunch of 1sts and 2nds in 2024
I would 100% trade Hanifin though. I just don't think he will be worth his next contract.
Lindholm likely does not ink if you trade the above players as well. Looks like we are rebuilding.
