1) Backlund - PUSH - either re-sign him and give him the C, or trade him this offseason. Really comes down to what he wants to do.
2) Lindholm - KEEP - he had down year, but centers like him don't grow on trees. If the money makes sense and he wants to stay, it's a no-brainer to me.
3) Toffoli - TRADE - easiest one on the list for me. Sell high.
4) Hanifin - PUSH - comes down to contract demands for me. If the money makes sense, I'd love to keep him around ... but if not, he makes for a heck of a trade chip this offseason.
5) Tanev - TRADE - might make sense to keep him until the deadline though.
6) Kylington - KEEP - also a no-brainer. Rooting hard for Oliver.
7) Zadorov - TRADE - love the guy, but he'll probably want term and with Kylington coming back, I think he could be a valuable trade chip.
also, if there's a sensible trade for Kadri out there, you do it.
