Maybe it makes sense if Johnny is moved with a Dman coming back the other way? Otherwise they Flames can’t afford to move Hanifin

I would like to see the flames look to re-sign Brodie.
Giordano, Andersson, Valimaki, Kylington
Possible re-signing: Brodie, Forbert, Gustaffson
I just don't think Hanafin is that great, nor do I see him trending to a top 3 dman. Outside of being a decent skater, he's basically a pretty average defender, and sub-average offence providing dman.
Hence, I think his brand/draft pedigree might be more valuable in a trade than his on ice role with the flames.
