5. The Calgary Flames care likely moving on from Noah Hanifin

The Calgary Flames need to make some big moves this off-season, and with a solid depth on the blue line, moving 26-year old Noah Hanifin seems to be the best choice, with many NHL insiders picking him as a top trade candidate this off-season. Despite his young age, Hanifin already has 598 games of experience at the NHL level, but he’s yet to hit the prime of his career, and it appears the Flames could land an absolute haul for him.

This is one move Flames fans could almost guarantee this off-season, and while he’s no doubt been beloved for his five seasons in Calgary, the team need to continue learning the best asset management possible, and in this case, it means moving on from No. 55.
