Quantity for quality usually indicates the quantity part of the deal is vastly inferior in value to the quality part of the deal. That wouldn’t be the case here as both Hanifin and Lindholm are extremely valuable young blossoming players just like Hamilton.

Hanifin sure has a lot of potential and I don't per se have anything against him, although switching him and Hamilton make the team worse in the short term since Hamilton currently is the better player.
But like I said I've seen Lindholm a lot and I can't get excited about him. He looks like a mediocre player to me who hasn't improved much at all since coming to the league. Unless Peters thinks he has another gear in him, I really don't have much interest in Lindholm.
Much rather base a deal around Hanifin alone and leave Lindholm out of it.
