[Trade] Hanifin (salary retained) to Vegas for Miromanov + 2026 1st + cond 3rd

[Canada 02]

5. Daniil Miromanov
To say that Miromanov's career thus far has been a whirlwind would be an understatement. Not only did he bounce around North America and Eastern Europe chaotically for a number of years, but he was also originally a winger and only recently switched fulltime to defence. Despite some expected growing pains, the returns to date have been very impressive overall, and you can tell that he's still just scratching the surface of how good he can become once he fully adjusts to his new position. His heavy shot is a serious weapon, especially with the offensive instincts that carried over from his time as a forward, and he uses his strength and reach well to win defensive battles. Miromanov has an abundance of remaining unmined upside, and it's exciting to think of how good the final product could be after a few more years of stable, focused growth within the same organization.

Well, we're running out of slots now. Might need to retain on Marky yet.

Got it. Outrage it is.

How many times do we have to wait for details on the return for a trade? Seems like this happens every other trade with the Flames.

I think he was a forward back then. He switched to playing D in Russia.

Not really, they'll have used 2 of 3 possible retention slots. Depending on what else they got in the fire, they may need that 3rd one.

Seems like a guy who could be about to go back to Russia any minute and was probably waiver fodder, but puts up some big points at every other level. If they can re-sign him and he's a minor piece could be an interesting low risk gamble.

I'm mean, of course he is. Jeez.

The speed at which this Vegas deal came together and for it to pull Conroy away from the Florida teams tells me there has to be a golden nugget or two coming in this deal.

In Mother Russia, forward defends for you.

Perfect, no notes.

I'm hearing at least 1319 guests in CP need to become members before we get details.

Murray and Bingo are working hard behind the scenes on this one.

[The Yen Man]

Huh didn't know the max slots for retained salary is 3. Well, if they don't trade Marky till the off season, hope they use the third slot for before Friday then.

[CgyFlamesftw]

Lol all the oiler fans in shambles, some good reads out there.

[Mathgod]

Guaranteed Hanifin goal on March 14.

[KootenayFlamesFan]

Miromanov is potentially a UFA after this season? And he's 26?

Yeah, that's a throw-in.

[D as in David]

Damn, I was hoping by the time I caught up in this thread that the reveal would have already occurred.

Are you angered by the fact that you have to wait to be angered by the return in Flames trades?

[getbak]

Prior to the trade, Vegas is at 49 active contracts and the Flames are at 45, so Miromanov is likely just to give Vegas some space to add more if they want to.
