Speculation has been rife for a while regarding a possible parting of ways between the Calgary Flames and defenseman Noah Hanifin as the trade deadline nears on March 8th. Hanifin, who will be an unrestricted free agent after next summer, is looking for a transfer to a more competitive team, amidst the Flames' unpredictable trajectory.

David Pagnotta from The Fourth Period reports that Hanifin's desire for a lengthy contract has associated him with teams like the Arizona Coyotes, Boston Bruins, and New Jersey Devils. Pagnotta disclosed

"Hanifin held off signing an eight-year extension with Calgary at the start of the season worth a reported $7.5M per season. The Flames reapproached him recently, but no deal yet. Teams know what he wants long-term, which might not help trade negotiations from Calgary's perspective, but if the Flames can't convince him to stay, they'll look to move him."


In the midst of prevailing uncertainty, 27-year-old Hanifin has demonstrated impressive form this season, on track to exceed his personal best of ten goals. Over 45 games, the defenseman from Boston has accumulated 25 points (comprising eight goals and 17 assists), spent 22 minutes in the penalty box, and holds a plus-ten rating.

With the trade deadline drawing closer, the future of Noah Hanifin continues to captivate, as the Calgary Flames might make one last effort to negotiate his extension. Meanwhile, there's increasing curiosity about which of the previously mentioned teams would best suit Hanifin. Participate in the poll below to express your opinion on this topic.
