Noah Hanifin's trade saga is heating up. Despite him practicing, his days donning the red «C» are numbered as trade talks intensify.

GOLDEN KNIGHTS LAND NOAH HANIFIN

Calgary Flames' general manager Craig Conroy would prefer to announce Hanifin's contract extension, but negotiations fell through, paving the way for a trade.

Hanifin Lands in Vegas

Enter the Vegas Golden Knights, the reigning Stanley Cup champions, who seem unfazed by salary constraints. With captain Mark Stone, who makes $9.5 million on LTIR and defenseman Alec Martinez, who rakes in $5.25 million on injured reserve, the Golden Knights have acquired significant cap space.

While some criticize the Golden Knights for exploiting cap loopholes being the sidelined players are likely to return for the playoffs, it's a strategic move within the rules of the game.

Noah Hanifin is a Golden Knight!
