I think they could even risk removing players to make room for others by acquiring picks and prospects. If Kylington is back maybe they do ditch Hanifin for pure futures. If they want to take a bigger risk they could do something similar with Lindholm and Toffoli and run with Coronato/Pelltier/Zary and hope the bounce back of Huberdeau, Markstrom and Mangiapane with a more consistent Kadri this team can still be better next year even with the removal of some key pieces in exchange for youth
