Hanifin was not getting two firsts. Every team knows the Flames have to trade him. He has an expiring contract. He is willimg to play for a limited number of teams. He's a great top for defender, but not a legit top pairing guy on a competitive team.
A lot of unrealistic views in here about what a rebuild actually entails. It's not as easy as flipping your roster for every other teams top prospects.
