Another factor in Hanifin’s value is RHD are more sought-after than LHD. That’s a big reason why more teams were in on Tanev. If you look at the rosters of a lot of playoff teams, their top-3 dmen in quality and in salary are LHD, LHD, RHD.

So fitting in an $8 mil LHD long-term is problematic. Do you bump a guy you’re already paying $5-6 mil to the 3rd pairing? Play someone on their off side? Modern coaches hate that.
