Halak is not playing great in NY but a change of scenery and a revamped boost of confidence from the team in front could do wonders.

I think Gio's a great guy and professional, fan of him since he joined the team. But yes, I'd trade him for that package. Reason is purely to do with age. Hamonic doesn't have his ceiling, but Hamonic could be relied on to be good for a number of years yet. Gio is questionable in that regard.
Halak is a solid goalie and if our D hypothetically didn't throw him to the wolves then he'd be an upgrade for sure.
