The key will be to convince Hanifin that he wants to sign with one of the hungrier teams - Jersey is beautiful! Right? right?

I can't see any scenario where the Flames let Hanifin walk for free in the summer, if they can't find the right deal they will extend him and he is definitely open to signing an extension here. If Boston wants him they will have to pony up. Personally I think Boston would be better served addressing their aging forward group and their centre depth than another big ticket D man.
