Golden Knights' Noah Hanifin: Heading to Vegas

Hanifin was traded from the Flames to the Golden Knights on Wednesday, Chris Johnston of The Athletic reports.

Per Darren Dreger of TSN, Daniil Miromanov, a first-round pick and a conditional-third round pick will be going to Calgary as part of a three-team deal that will also involve salary retention by the Flyers to make the math work for Vegas. Hanifin represents an upgrade for the Golden Knights' defense. He's racked up 35 points, 123 shots on net, 89 blocked shots and a plus-13 rating over 61 contests with the Flames this season. Hanifin will likely slot into a top-four spot vacated by Alec Martinez (undisclosed), who was placed on injured reserve Wednesday. Per Dreger, the Golden Knights are also working on a contract extension for Hanifin, who is currently set for unrestricted free agency this summer.
