If Hanifin was what it took to nab Eichel, then the trade should've been executed in the summer prior to the expansion draft. Losing Hanifin + for Eichel would've been just fine had the Flames been able to keep Gio.
But obviously right now, it wouldn't make much sense to trade our only top 4 LHD for a player who might not even play this season.
