San Jose was in the spot Calgary is going to be in in the next couple years. I feel Calgary has gotten the jump on it way before San Jose did. That said, guys on that team with big contracts could still actually play, or overachieved and were easier to move. This is why you move guys like Coleman in the off season. If he was 25 I would give him 8 million a year, but this a career year and he's old.

Actually, no, you wouldn't, because he still has three years to go on his current contract.
As far as I'm concerned, Coleman can stay for the rest of that contract if he wants. He's a very good and conscientious defensive winger who also scores some goals and sets a good example for the young players. He came here as a UFA; I don't mind if he leaves as a UFA.

Disagree. You can't just have a bunch of young guys with no mentors. That's how you quickly become Buffalo or Ottawa. I think Coleman would be a fantastic mentor, and the only way he's not on this team is if he asks for a trade.
Now, in his last year of his contract, if he's playing really well then you can flip him at the trade deadline.
