I was hype for Hanifin as while he did not have the offense of Hamilton I believed him to be a more well rounded player at the time of the trade but again development appears to have more or less plateaud with him which is why I believe he is once again available.
Overall, a downgrade on asset value without much of a contractual benefit.

Sorry, what was the downgrade in asset value? Trade was not 1 for 1.
I disagree that development has plateaued, he was clearly being held back by being paired with Hamonic, and was much better with Andersson. Those two could be the Flames' top pairing next season, if Gio's apparent decline continues and if Brodie is not re-signed or replaced with someone comparable.
