apollo Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 With this post^^^one would think that Apollo is paying Tanev out of his own pocket. I don't care about the money. It's the cap hit... I don't c why aquaman can't just give these players a couple of condos under the table and take a million off the contracts. He has the means. I'd be more than happy if tanev made 100 million in his career. I like him, but cap hit isn't good for the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowYaDrouin Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 No dice man. I have a feeling that the contracts dolled out this year to guys like Methot, Leddy had an impact as to how much Tanev's camp was looking for and how much leeway Benning had in negotiating. I think Tanev is equal to if not better than a Marc Methot. Who, by the way, is making a cool $4.9M on his next contract. Also, new salary era. Top end guys like Toews and Kane are making around $10M compared to the $6M 1st liners were making a decade ago. Hey you! stop doing that... You know, making reasonable arguments with facts to support your claims! How dare you go against the expert contract negotiatiors and scouts that we have here on CDC. For the record: Methot>>>>>>>>Tanev [/sarcasm] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that it was just because it wasn't announced with the contract, that people assumed that he didn't have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canucks.brad Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 4.45 x 5 years is great.He is a top 5 defensive dman in the NHL. Every team needs a guy like him and many dont have it. He is not flashy nor physical but does every single little thing a player can do right. Love we have him for 5 more years. Should he regress considerably the lack of an NTC makes him movable but I don't see that happening. What?! 1. Weber 2. Doughty 3. Keith 4. Chara 5. Subban 6. Karlsson 7. Suter 8. Hedman Yea...dont know where you get top 5 buddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steviewonder20 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Basically fair money given where he's at now and the rate of improvement he's shown. If he continues to get better it could be a bargain, if he stays the same it's fine, and if concussions catch up with him, well at least there's LTIR. This spells the end for at least one of Bieksa and Hamhuis next year, from a cap perspective. I agree. There is no way we can have a competitive team with so many D men making over $4 million per year. As a shut-down D man paired with Edler, they are quite good; as others have said, the extra money he got may be to compensate for not having a NTC (which I hope is the case). With Hammer having so many turnovers and Juice getting slower, I see one of them going to make room for younger and (hopefully) bigger D men. I'd also like to use Miller's salary to upgrade our second line and fly with Lack and Markstrom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goat James Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Ya know there's something called defensive dmen in the league right? They're not all Bobby Orr like and Tanev is the arguably the safet stay at home dman in the league. Stop being so salty. This is not true at all.

King Heffy Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I think people underestimate the value of pure defensive skill because it's harder to quantify it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaft Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 This is a good deal. I don't see how it's an overpayment seeing as both Hamhuis and Bieksa will still be making more then him. Tanev is easily a better defenseman than those two. Players are getting over paid these days and as long as there's no ntc, then this is a great contract extension.

TOMapleLaughs Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 This is not true at all.Of course it isn't. One solid hit by a big power forward can put him out of a game. But it doesn't matter. Tanev was re-signed at current market value, considering a couple seasons of UFA time was taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
