The original proposal we talked about where Hamilton was traded for Hanifin + Lindholm would have been an absolute fleecing of CAR IMO. Basically we'd be getting Lindholm almost for free because I view Hanifin's value and Hamilton's value as very close.

Yep. Hamilton for Hanifin or Lindholm on their own is a bad deal for us. Hamilton for both is a great deal for us.
