They can't sign all four long term (and man that would be scary if they did anyway), and they can't just walk all four to free agency.

Tanevs injury history would make him expendable but what value does he have on the trade market?
You keep Lindholm and Hanifin. Top 4 of Weegar Andersson Hanifin and Kylington.
Toffoli is interesting because he signed a relatively cap friendly deal in Montreal woukd he do the same here? Does keeping him clog up the right side with Coronato?
They also need to decide on Mangiapane is he a one year wonder.
No doubt whatever gm comes in will be dealing with a pile of ish.
