Proposal: Buffalo Proposals for Hanifin (Merged)

[BB88]

Brutal for Carolina

That’s horrible....

Maybe Faulk +2018 1st for ROR??

Buffalo should target someone who can shutdown lines.

 

[Spazkat]

ROR
Kane

For

Hanifin
2018 1st

ROR for Hanifin is fair
Kane for a 1st is fair

Canes get a great winger and first line center and the sabres get a top D prospect and good draft pick

Given the likelihood of them making the payoffs, why on earth would the Canes give up a potential lottery pick for a rental in Kane? You want a 1st for Kane you probably need to target a team with cup aspirations this year.

 

[bluedevil58]

Hanifin + Skinner + 1st

For

Kane + RoR

Are you kidding me!!!!

 

[bluedevil58]

Kane for Faulk. 1 for 1.

 

[Hulkacaniac]

ROR
Kane

For

Hanifin
2018 1st

ROR for Hanifin is fair
Kane for a 1st is fair

In what world is a rental worth a lottery pick?

 

[Negan4Coach]

Why can't people get that the Canes can't trade Skinner, regardless of the total value of the deal.

How are they supposed to replace the 35 goals a year he scores? He's literally the only sniper on the team.

The trade altogether is fair. ROR is better than Hanifin and this could push the Canes into the playoffs...

ROR>Hanifin is your perception. Could make the playoffs? Not good enough, not throwing away a possible lottery pick for could make the playoffs

 

[is the answer jesus]

Kane for Faulk. 1 for 1.

Kane would have to be coming with an extension in place. Otherwise that's terribad for the Hurricanes

 

[HAYT]

Hanifin + Skinner + 1st

For

Kane + RoR

Ha!

Yup extension is a contingency. This is fair. Not a homer trade IMO assuming the contingency is in place.

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

Fire this one into the sun. It's just that bad. Francis would legit spit in Botterills face if he proposed this in person.

why ? ROR and Kane for a 3rd pairing d man and a second line winger, francis gets the best player in the deal and a much needed boost at centre

Yeah, you're right. Sounds like Carolina would be sending Buffalo a bunch of trash. Can't do this deal in good faith as it would be ripping off the Sabres.

 

[StormCast]

If Faulk is moved, it HAS to be for a center.

 

[FerrisRox]

And if ROR is traded, that add to Hannifin will be substaintal.

If I were Carolina, I wouldn't trade Hanifin straight up for ROR, let alone adding anything.

 

[JCLA]

Yeah nobody is going to be adding anything to Hanifin for ROR

Funny, BUFF has Kane and ROR now, with Eichel.... yet they aren't close to pushing for the playoffs.

It's funny that the canes have 5 Dman ahead of Hanifin and they still suck. Must not be that good

 

[bluedevil58]

Hang on there. The canes have 25 M in cap space and have 31 points. Buffalo has 8M in cap space and has 22 points. Slow your role brah. Buffalo spends way more and is way worse.

Canes fan here, I'm interested to see your list of "5 Dman (on the Canes) ahead of Hanifin."

This should be good

 

[tsujimoto74]

Yeah nobody is going to be adding anything to Hanifin for ROR

If you look at the Jones-RyJo trade as a comparable, I agree it's pretty even one-for-one. Whether or not either team makes that trade is a different question, but value-wise, I think it's close.

 

[Dr Quincy]

1) I'm not a Canes fan, so who cares?
2) I'm not the one contending that this deal would turn 1 of these teams into a playoff contender this year, you are.
3) Offfering Kane to CAR shows a lack of understanding about the other team

 

[JCLA]

Yep. I personally don't know if ROR is the center the canes would trade Hanifin for but it's definitely close in value one for one.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

Any team giving up what it would take to pry Hanifin loose from Carolina is doing so for what he could be, not what currently is. He’s shown just enough at the NHL level to justify a high return.

NHL.com - Stats

Small sample size, but since being unshackled from Tennyson/Dahlbeck/Murphy, Hanifin has gone to a new level offensively, outscoring the likes of Byfuglien, Yandle, Keith, Ekman-Larsson, as well as fellow 2015 draftees Provorov and Werenski, since the Hainsey trade. For a player that was said to have a lower offensive ceiling by some coming into the league, his development has been encouraging, despite an unexpectedly raw defensive game. If and hopefully when his defensive game matures, look out.
