I'd hope to god that any trade with Buffalo or Detroit included more than just 1 of their top 4 prospects... anything less is severely undervaluing an extended Hanifin.
Why are we assuming that we cant/shouldn't get a top prospect + again?
Both those teams would instantly slot Hanifin into their top 2, maybe Buffalo top 4 but still.

It’s just that returns have been mostly disappointing for good players that are under contract this year. And earlier this offseason, it was reported that the offers the flames were receiving for their upcoming UFAs have been underwhelming.
Keep in mind that a trade with Buffalo returning their 5th + 6th best prospects would likely be pretty equivalent to getting the #1/2/3 prospect from most other teams in a trade. Their prospect pool is that deep.
