It appears to me that the next player to go is Lindholm. I think that on this roster they can replace Lindy with a cheaper player on that line. Since he doesn't mesh with Huby or Kadri, we can afford to downgrade that spot. Maybe Sharangovich moved to centre and Coronato on right wing? I think that Noah is going to be the hardest to replace and the team should still try to sign him. He may have found his offensive game - which makes him a more dynamic player.
The people driving the bus on this team of late seem to be Zary, Kadri, Weegar, and the Backlund line. I know Lindholm is tied for team lead in points but I think his roster spot is fillable.
Even with selling all the UFAs, I don't see this team as being in tank territory as some people imagine. This team without Tanev, Lindholm, and Hanafin is still competing for a playoff spot. Even dare I say that this team may be competitive with any team in the West?
