Maybe? But this lineup is both frustrating because it will lack good development play time for our young players and is unlikely to win anything. We should be looking at packaging Zary with someone like Coleman to see if that can land us a center upgrade. Or Farabee and Coleman, but depressed value makes that less likely. Sharangovich should also be out the door.

Guys that I would consider trading this season to make room:
Coleman
Backlund - Only if he wants to, it would be super interesting to trade both him and Coleman together to see if they can get Backlund a cup.
Lomberg
Zary - especially if his contract situation is getting negative or he can bring us back a big C upgrade.

I would only move Kadri out if we land McTavish (or equivalent). Moving him out without a replacement would just turn our C depth into Frost, Backlund, Zary, Kirkland, which is somewhat terrifying.
Even if your goal is to tank, I do not think you want to cave the team in on top of Wolf and Parekh.
