Andersson and Hanifin were the top pairing on a team that finished 3rd in GA two seasons ago, and Weegar received Norris consideration in his last two seasons before joining the Flames.
These three guys are good enough to carry the load, and they're all currently in or entering their prime.
Lets not allow bad coaching and poor player utilization to cloud our judgement of three objectively good players.
The Flames signing Hanifin to a long-term deal at $6.5M AAV or less is a fair (and tradeable) contract.
