Before giving up on Hanifin it would be wise to get him an new partner and see how he looks with that player. He and Andersson were strong when paired together.

Having said that if the Flames are able to acquire a top 4 Dman in a deal for Johnny I am not opposed to moving Hanifin for a top 6 forward. I am not as down on Domi as a few posters are but I would want more coming with him. The Habs have several 2nd round picks this coming draft and a couple of those attached with Domi would be appealing and help refill the prospect cupboard while also adding a top 6 C/W. Again that only makes sense to me if the team is adding a top 4 D elsewhere
I'd love to acquire Sanheim from Philly. Believe he can play LD/RD, we'd probably use him on RD. If Gaudreau was traded to Philly, Sanheim is my base.

He's only got a year left on his deal, but he's a supremely skilled right shot winger. Feels like he just scratched the surface of what he's capable of last season.

Gaudreau - Monahan - Gusev

Tkachuk - Lindholm - Gusev

If they sign Hall and keep Johnny:

Hall - Monahan - Gaudreau
Tkachuk - Lindholm - Gusev
Gusev plays LW. It would cost a 1st and a prospect, Gusev was playing really well before the break. Devils are better off giving him tons of ice time and PP time to drive up his value, then shipping him off at the deadline.
