I’d take calls on Hanifin at 50%, and I would be speaking to Lindholm’s agent about his warmth to re-signing. If it’s anything less than “I want to be a Calgary Flame for life” I take calls on him too.
Huberdeau and Weegar are here. They’re committed. We’re committed. The cap is going to be $100M in a couple years, and they have to reach the floor somehow. I think Huberdeau is going to be a good player to help bring along younger players as more are inevitably brought up.

Flames retaining 50% on Hanifin? Won’t happen.
They may trade him, in the offseason, but I doubt very much they retain. Not without a stark change in the direction they have set course for here for at least next year.
