Like what? An LTIRetiree still takes up one of your contract spots and provides nothing.
Sure, we could use some salary retention spots but we still have plenty of cap room to do that with so that isn't a sound reason either.
Why do you feel that Coleman's leadership is redundant? Is there nothing that can be learned from a player like Coleman? From the stuff I hear, he is exacty the type of leader you want on your team.
