You present this as if Brodie's contributions are less vital to this team's success than Hamonic's.
They're not. Brodie may play a more saturated style but his contributions are a far more significant part of the team's success. If Andersson could handle top 4 duties (no, he can't yet) I'd be perfectly content moving Hamonic even if we lose the aesthetics of Hamonic's fearless style.
The team at this point would be idiotic to move Brodie. They probably shouldn't move Hamonic either until Andersson shows better ability to hang in a top 4 role with Hanifin.
If we're moving a D it's most likely Stone, maybe Prout too as a favour. Or maybe we're moving one of our trifecta of young L.D. - Hanifin, Valimaki, Kylington, although I feel it's too early to make a decision there given the ceilings of these three.
