That's how I see it too. Maybe if they don't have a bad season Hanafin still wants to go back to the US and they still don't want to give Toffoli that much term so he still asks for a trade. But maybe Lindholm and Backlund are more optimistic and are willing to sacrifice maybe getting more next summer to stay.
