I think cloning Zetterberg and playing his younger self could be an effective approach.
As far as trades get what you can for the veterans which won't be a lot and keep building through the draft. This team is a big rebuild.

Quoting: Stevierebz

I don't see why you would buyout Nielsen you save 1.8M first year but costs another 800k+ for another roster player anyways. Save 833k in 2nd year so basically nothing with the replacements cost. Just scratch him, he also had 60% dzone starts and was only -0.4% FF relative to the team which is pretty decent for heavy dzone starts.
