I do think it's not a bad time to cut Toffoli loose and get a haul for him from a team that can and will use him well. Maybe LA.

Toffoli, Tanev and Backlund are the 3 I can see moving on especially since he name dropped Lindholm as someone you want to keep.
That opens up 3 roster spots for guys to take, and the reality is we probably don't have much of a choice or they just walk and he said that wont happen under him.
