This would be such a massive mistake.
Zadorov is a great story, he's played well and formed a third pairing match with Gudbranson.
But he's older
He's sheltered
He was beat out to be the top four left defenseman.
If he had to take on Hanifin's matchups and workload for one period it would be obvious that you wouldn't make that swap.
