Expected as he is not in the long term plans. Expect Edler and a new RHD from trade to offset along with new guys like Hughes and Joulevi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rekker Posted June 19, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 19, 2019 Doesnt surprise me at all. It may also be a story leaked on purpose. Puts pressure on TO to swap Zaitsez + for Tanev. TO has done nothing to improve their D yet and lots of pressure on Dubas to do so. A trade around Zaitsev + for Tanev makes so much sense. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cdubuya Posted June 19, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 19, 2019 Tanev's trade value hasn't been this low since he was an undrafted free agent.... We should have traded him 2 years ago when it was sky high, or just keep him and hope his value increases to what it once was and he can be a serviceable shutdown guy for us. 3 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be onto something here. It is just about a year or two too late IMO. He would have netted us so much more two years ago when his value was at its peak. Oh well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generational.EP40 Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 It’s the radio guys mentioning this. I’ll believe it when a proper insider reveals it. Not taking them seriously because they do this every often just to get more clicks, it’s general knowledge at this point. ...and I don’t think it makes sense with Edler testing free agency either. If you lose him and then trade Tanev, our defense is completely depleted. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to give credit, when it's due. Edited June 19, 2019 by KKnight 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't Eklund or some other source that are constantly wrong. I think it has plenty of legs especially considering our desire to get younger and healthier on the blueline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JM_ Posted June 19, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 19, 2019 If all we can get is a 2nd and 3rd for Tanev its better to keep him and pair him with Hughes or Juolevi for sheltering. 1 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the value of keeping a guy that will miss a guaranteed 30 games. Then, having to constantly dip into your already thin depth on the blue line. Move on, get what you can and fill his spot with someone less talented but more durable who you know will give you lots of games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizza Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Tanev + Edler's rights + 10th + 40th for New Jersey's 1st overall pick. Seriously though I'd be happy with a high 2nd round pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand why they didn't, but they should have. For me, this ,management team has had two main blunders.......trading kassian and not trading Tanev 2-3 years ago when it was obvious staying healthy was an issue for him. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to have a source for info, or maybe I'm wrong here? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why hang the kids out to dry for a 20% chance at a pick making the NHL? doesn't make sense. Better to wait, let the kids learn with him, and maybe if he's not hurt move him for a lot more at the TDL. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listening to TO radio the other day, and the hosts (don't remember their names) were very high on Tanev. I think Tanev's solid Defensive game, and how he plays the right way, is more appreciated outside of Vancouver. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenman92 Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 I wonder if the Jets are interested? They're said to be looking to swap Ehlers for one of the Canes RHD. Tanev & 10 for Ehlers & ??? 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillipBlunt Posted June 19, 2019 Share Posted June 19, 2019 Moving Tanev is a good idea. At this point, get what you can for him, and move on. The guy is a solid defenseman but spends so much of each season being put back together again. As timberz21 has said, having Tanev on the defense corps means that there's a 75% chance that he'll go down and the depth will be tested again, like clockwork. Again, time to move on. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
