I'm not even sure that Hanifin is a temporary downgrade from Hamiltoe.
I have been indulging in a lot of Hanifin highlights, and yes I understand that highlight packages aren't the best way to judge players as they usually do not include the snafus, but Hanifin seems to have a lot of qualities that go beyond numbers.
While he doesn't score as much, he seems to be very clutch. Many of his big plays happen when the team is down by one and come after second attempts. He doesn't give up and also seems to have a very high hockey IQ. He uses his teammates well. Hamilton just doesn't seem to have that 2nd gear.
I haven't looked at statistical comparisons or anything, so I could be wrong about the clutch thing.
