Hanifin has been linked to the Bruins for some time now, and with the team in Calgary for a Thursday night showdown, it gives the two parties the opportunity to come together and make a deal.
Now, a Bruins Insider has revealed that Hanifin could potentially be headed home tonight as a member of the Boston Bruins, rather than with the Calgary Flames.
For months now, we've seen Jacob Markstrom, Hanifin and Chris Tanev linked to Dallas, Colorado, New Jersey, Edmonton, Toronto, Tampa Bay and seemingly every playoff team in the league, and with the trade deadline less than three weeks away, things may start heating up.
With Boston having several young players and some future picks, they have the ability to give Calgary what they want in a deal, and being Hanifin's home town team, it may just be the team that makes most sense.
Either way, keep your eyes peeled on tonight's big matchup between Calgary and Boston, as we could see something shocking unfold.
