Maple Leafs Discussing Deal for Vegas Noah Hanifin (e3)
On Noah Hanifin...
- Full Name: Noah Christian Hanifin
- Born: January 25, 1997 (age 27)
- Hometown: Norwood, Massachusetts, USA
- Height/Weight: 6'3" (191 cm) / 206 lbs (93 kg)
- Shoots: Left
- Family Ties: Comes from a hockey family—his father, Jerry, played junior hockey, and his uncle, Dan Hanifin, was a college standout. Hanifin was a standout at the University of Massachusetts (UMass) for one season before turning pro, but he skipped the typical NCAA route after being a high draft pick.
Currently…
Hanifin missed ten games for Vegas, but did return last night to the lineup versus Detroit… The Leafs have liked Hanifin for a while…and of course the Leafs GM Brad Teliving had Noah in Calgary and trusts the American D-man…
What's standing in the way...
The hardest part of this deal will be making the Cap numbers s fit…Toronto is right up against the cap...
