Poitras and a 1st would have be the start...

He had a hot start with a hot team but since the WJHC break he's been pretty pedestrian. As one of the NHL loans for the world juniors he should have dominated and honestly looked a step behind the entire time.

Perhaps I'm just not that high on him personally, however I feel the guy tops out as a 3rd liner at best.
I think Poitras and a first would be fine for hanifin. IMO I’m treating hanifin as a rental trade. There is probably one or 2 teams he would do sign and trade with at this junction. Whether or not those teams/team want to pay a sign and trade price is debatable. As a rental he should get 1st + +. The + + I’m pretty sure isn’t going to be a blue chip prospect.
