Moving Hanifin for futures is a terrible idea, nothing will convince me otherwise.

...and then lose the player you acquired in the expansions draft? Smort.
Noah Hanifin isn’t some golden goose. He’s a solid player, and he’s young and signed to a market-value deal. If this team can sign Pietrangelo (an elite defenceman), and trade Hanifin for a 1st + 2nd + 2nd? Well that’s an absolute win. You improved your team, and you gained additional assets that are expansion draft exempt.
