which is the correct way to play it after offseason trades/extensions didn't materialize. Set a deadline (30 games? 40, 50?) and pivot towards trading them if no extensions materialize before that.
I have no issues with re-signing Hanifin if the money makes sense. He's been around for so long, you kind of forget he's only 26 ... that's the kind of long-term deal that is not going to kill you.
