In simpler terms, I look at the trade as this - Dougie was responsible for XX goals a year being scored on us. We all saw him give up soft goals OR stupid penalties that led to a power play that scored a goal on us. He also was responsible for us scoring XX goals. Whether it was with a great pass, breakout or shot. In the end, I'd rather have Hanafin's stable play night in and night out. Not as many goals scored by the opposition, and not as many scored by us. It all works out in the wash. Cheaper and younger with less stress, I'd take Hannifin every time
