This is why I figured Carolina was the perfect trade partner. Hanifin for Duchene (or along those lines).

Why? Young defenceman or no young defenceman that Colorado team is going to be epically terrible next season.
If I wanted a young defenceman in exchange for Duchene I'd probably want one thats going to get to ride out the next couple years of Colorado's crippling ineptitude in the AHL rather than souring them by making them experience first-hand up close and personal.
