We will not trade Tanev. If he leaves it’s as a UFA July 1st. And we don’t want/need Crapenen. #LoserLeafs Edited January 24, 2020 by Alflives Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Type R Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 I don't hate this proposal, but I think we are asking a bit much with the 3rd rounder throw in. If we sacrafice Tanev, how do we plug that hole? Maybe then we pick up Dillon? Hughes has been allowed to play his game, because Tanev is beside him to cover his mistakes. We would need another defensive minded guy to play beside him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t you think that depends on how the team performs over the next month? If for some reason the team falters it would be ill advised not to trade Tanev as I’m unsure if he fits into the Canucks longterm plans and if that is the case we should be getting back something for him.

The Loser Leafs are more likely to become sellers than we are. They are faltering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason for the 3rd is that I believe Toronto’s need for a d-man like Tanev out weighs our need for a RW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a media post last summer (2018) that would certainly contradict your perceived value of Tanev. I actually agree that we should move him as he is as one dimensional as it gets, potential UFA and his salary does not really fit with our salary cap structure. Why you trade him: If the team is looking to accelerate a rebuild, trading Tanev could help. Why you don’t trade him: He’s coming off an injury-ravaged season and when he played he wasn’t all that good. His value has never been lower. This has been reflected in incredibly low offers for him this off-season, including mid-round picks, B-level prospects and fourth-line grinders. Also, teams have asked the Canucks to take salary back. Conclusion: Considering the offers, untradeable. The Canucks can’t give him away.

King Heffy Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Toronto is desperate for an NHL quality defenseman other than Muzzin. I'd be demanding a bigger overpayment than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only have one Tanev The only players in our top 6 definitively better than Kapanen are Boeser, Miller, Petey and Horvat. I get you're anti Leafs but Kapanen is a much better Hansen. Doesn't quite have Hansen's grit but Hansen didn't have anywhere near the offensive talent of Kapanen. I'd take Kapanen for Tanev in a heartbeat. Kapanen Pearson and Horvat would be such an annoying line to play against in all 3 zones. Hell Kapanen could even play with Petey and open up the ice in a big way for him. Kapanen isn't a one way player, he is a dog and defensively responsible. Dude is legit. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know how they are even remotely similar players and I think you are highly overvaluing Baer who hasn’t played more then 69 games, is 4 years older, has never hit the 20 goal mark and is currently playing in the AHL.

VegasCanuck Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Unless this team suffers a complete breakdown after the All star break, there's not a chance in hell that we trade Tanev unless its for a windfall of assets. Benning likes how this team looks and is performing, I'm not sure why people aren't getting that. Anything that we do before the deadline, will be lateral, tweaking of prospects, and possibly trying to offload Baerstchi's contract and get him back to playing in the NHL with someone, which he really deserves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree completely and that’s why a trade like this is only possible if the teams performance over the next month drops us out of playoff contention.
