CanuckFan1123 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 8 hours until the start of free agency. Ugh. I’ve already mentally parted ways with Markstrom and Toffoli but Tanev has been my favorite player for years and I really don’t want to lose him. Please hockey gods, Chris Tanev re-signs in Vancouver!! Age is just a number. He’s a warrior and has a lot of great hockey in front of him! Don’t break my heart. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kanucks25 Posted October 9, 2020 Share Posted October 9, 2020 (edited) Gotta imagine Tanev's future here hinges on what happens with OEL. They don't play the same side but OEL will take his money and thensome. Our left side will be stacked but Myers as our best option on the right is scary. Might be able to keep him if we can somehow dump a Sutter or Eriksson type... it'll take some magic. Edited October 9, 2020 by kanucks25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think OEL is out of the picture, I won't be surprised to see Tanev back, but I think the price range has already been set today for Tanev to stay with the team in a COVID market. Shattenkirk 3.9 million per Shultz 4 million per DeMelo 3.5 million per 3.25 - 3.75 x 3 years, lock him up like Trump! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanman is better than all three of those defensemen, IMO. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally agree, was factoring a hometown discount, but let's run to 4.25. A year ago, I don't think any of us would have been having a discussion below 5. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in a non-COVID world, the discussion for Tanev probably starts at $4.5M and ends up a bit over $5M. In our new world, we might be able get going under $5M.

I don't think we can afford to go to 5, I think we probably cap out on him around 4.5 right now. I think more than that, and we will probably choose to back fill with some 2 million contracts and have more options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) Tanev leaves the organization 78th in all-time Canuck, in the middle of an odd run of defensemen.

kanucks25 Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 My favorite player since he became a regular on the Canucks. Will be missed. Our right side looks bleak right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-AJ- Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 This is really painful to me. I've been a huge Tanev fan since day one. Stings kind of like losing Mitchell, Jovo, and Naslund all did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Tanev, but his good playoffs should not blur the reality of him being a major injury machine. 2016-17 53 games 17-18 42 games 18-19 55 games And at the lock down he was out as well. He signed for 4 years but if you take into account his injury record the flames will probably not get more than 3 years of games out of him.

A testament to the player he is, -8 in 15/16 was his only minus year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bell Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Thanks Chris, I don't think the fans in Vancouver really appreciated what u did on a nightly basis for this team. Good luck and stay healthy, you are a true warrior. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nucker 67 Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Kind of annoyed at Tanev on this. I thought he bled blue and green, but I also understand he wanted more term than what Benning was able to offer. Well, Tanev's last season was a bit of an anomaly, playing with Hughes. First season I can remember him not being injured. I'm guessing that will change back in CGY, and he'll spend more time on the IR. It's too bad, I thought he would be a lifer like the Sedins and Edler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wloutet Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Thinking about salaries. Any player that makes over $3.65 million a year, has a salary of $10,000 PER DAY! What I am wondering is, how much of that do they actually take home? I am sure they pay lots of taxes, pay into pensions,, have union dues, pay agents and special trainers.

#Canucks Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 I’m not mad at Tanev. Chances are his family stays in Vancouver and it’s A short commute for them to see him and him to see them. I hope it works out in Calgary and I hope we kick their butts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
