With that said his value would have been highest 2 seasons ago, but Flames were busy trying to compete and it wasn’t even a thought back then I’m certain.
And that’s the mistake. For a small market team entering re-tool/rebuild need to maximize assets. Some of us stated at trade deadline that a sign and trade in final year was going to be very hard to pull off. If hanifin situation didn’t teach CC that this certainly should. I get culture, but flames have to be in front of the curve when it comes to things like this. Hopefully this all works out but my guess is he is traded for hanifin return
