If Flames want to shake up the core I think Gio and Backlund are the starting points.
What do you think the Flames could get for Gio?

I am actually not expecting much to be honest. Maybe a team with a young D core would want him.I’m sure you’d be disappointed with the return. You don’t shake things up moving a 37 year old D before the expansion draft.
He won the Norris a year and a half ago, they wouldn’t have to pay someone to take him.What are the Flames willing to give up for someone to take him? I would think your 1st is on the table
What? He’s struggled this year, but he’s not so bad that the Flames need to dump him like that.What are the Flames willing to give up for someone to take him? I would think your 1st is on the table
The entire team has been disappointing and he is the captain so he is going to draw a large amount of criticism. Add to that he is getting older.Has Gio been that bad?
He has been okay. Definitely slowing down but can still play. If the Flames need to pay for someone to take him he will stay on the Flames.Has Gio been that bad?
I don't see the Flames getting a ton for him, maybe you can convince a team at the deadline to give up a late 1st, if you retain a bit of salary. Most likely you're looking at a 2nd + b prospect.

He is automatically protected in the expansion draft. Meaning any team taking him is going to lose a good Dman

Kris Russell + 2ndNeeds to go to a cup contending team. Give us a cap dump back and a pick and he's all yours.
He has regressed as a top pairing guy, unless you can pair him up with your top pairing RD and they hit it off. Otherwise, he's safely a middle pairing guy that can still play on special teams.
