Might be tough to trade Ryan without bringing back some salary, and a $1M backup behind Markstrom isn't ideal considering his recent injuries.
Hanifin is the player on the roster most likely to return a legit C prospect, which is what the team really needs.
You've demonstrated that it's possible, but IMO it's just not a good idea to go all-in on Pietro+Markstrom+Hanifin+Gio+existing Forward core
