Just because it appears that a large segment of people here are unaware..

TJ Brodie is actually OLDER than Hamonic

Noah Hanifin is actually YOUNGER than Rasmus Andersson and is only 4 months older than Oliver Kylington.

All by mere months in both cases but it seems I'm reading this sentiment about turning 30 and falling off a cliff stuff in Hamonics case. He is 28. And the one thing that goes when any of these guys hit the ledge? Skating. Who relies more on skating between the two? I'm not suggesting eiether guy needs to worry about a large fall-off at this point but if that is the parameter, you should be wanting to run away from TJ as fast as you can.

I think I saw that someone suggested that Kylington could replace Hanifin right now.

What?

Kylington played very limited and sheltered minutes in less than half the season, and almost none down the stretch. Hanifin has played well over 300 NHL games and as a key member of whatever blueline he was on and in all situations, and just agreed to a lengthy extension at good $$ to be in Calgary. He is going no where.

Brodie, Stone, and Kylington are the pool of dmen that moves will come from this summer.
