I recall, on CP, many fans talking about Brodie's ceiling being a 5-6 guy.
Even more amazing, posters talking about Giordano's ceiling being a 5-6 guy.
Learning how to play D in the NHL takes time. Hanifin's ceiling is a top pairing guy. He may or may not get there. But suggesting a 23 year old Dman has hit his ceiling, is just crazy.

All true, and if the Flames do shop Hanifin hopefully there are many GMs that feel the same way so that Tre can get back some high end value from the trade.
