Hanifin would probably have turned into a tire fire like Nurse if they drafted him. With defensemen u have to really develop them nicely and if u throw them to the wolves like Edmonton wouldve done it wouldnt have been good for him. Look what happened to Petry and Schultz after they left Eddy.
I dont think anyone was more happy that the Oilers won the Lottery than Hanifin. How ironic he plays for the Flames now lol.
