Considering that the talk was that Sabres offered olofsson and a 3rd for hanifin at the draft, you have to believe that if they are still interested in Hanifin, they are trying to send olofsson back in any deal. And I don’t think Marky would be in the mix, rather vladar.
Given that the Sabres went and signed a bunch of D, imagine they would want to send d back in any deal. But outside of the Sabres top 3, you are looking at taking back a 5-6 d in any potential deal.
Would hope that a deal involving Vladar and Hanifin would bring back olofsson a d and one would hope a good prospect. Conny has said they want a top 6 f and despite his flaws, olofsson can score. Would acquiring olofsson be enough to convince lindholm to sign long term? Dunno. But have to wonder what else is being offered. I don’t think we are going to win a hockey trade with hanifin in it, hopefully we can get a future piece as part of the deal which may work out for us in the long run.
