I like Zadorov but he will not happy in rebuilding team.
Sell Weegar, Tanev, Hanifin for picks and salary dump with short term. Try to sell Markstrom and Kadri with some salary retention.

Kadri's the guy I'm most interested in dealing. I don't care what anyone says, he's cashed and loafting. He could have value to a team considering everyone in the hockey world wants an agitator. It may take some retention to do it but someone would want him enough where with some retention we could bring back some value. The Islanders seem like a good fit there.
As for Markstrom, I think his confidence is shot and he's done. Insiders really think he's still elite which is a headscratcher but works in our favour for getting value back. I'd push for Edmonton to get him considering his NMC and Edmonton's closeness could help to him waiving, not to mention if it ultimately doesn't work out there the Edmonton pick could be valuable. No way I touch Campbell's contract, but I imagine Campbell could be a good guy to mentor Wolf, as he isn't selfish. Would be nice to get out of Markstrom's contract, even if it means taking on another bad one (only if a lesser term, bad one).
