Overpay in UFA on short term deals or swap players like Mangiapane/Dube for players the pro scouts think are a better fit. Don't need to spend assets to do it.

There is no trade for him that makes sense. Nurse would be about the only target for a bad contract swap. Retaining a million won't do much for his value and retaining 3-4 million doesn't make sense.
