More speculation means more hits means more money. Otherwise, if facts alone did the trick, more of those hacks would probably deviate from speculation. Mainstream media in a nutshell. Sensationalism sells. Facts don’t. Integrity? What’s that? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancaster Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 2 hours ago, Coconuts said: Technically he's a UFA now but free agency hasn't started, wouldn't this be considered tampering? Can you talk about other team's players like that leading up to free agency? Probably some grey area..... Rutherford could have just went, "Hey Brandon... how's your summer going? Good to hear.... you know, I'm hoping to make the team better this upcoming season. If your brother makes it to UFA, I would totally do my best to bring him into the fold...." Then Brandon chatting with Chris, "Yo bro... my GM just said...." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Vintage Canuck- Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 I guess it’s either Vancouver or Pittsburgh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 If they wanna give him 5m per then by all means. He's not worth more than 4. Hell I'd argue he's worth closer to 3.5 with his abysmal health. If I recall he got injured before the stoppage so even over a full season he probably misses the 70 game plateau again.

oldnews Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 remember when Brandon was a UFA and could have joined his brother in Vancouver....but signed in Pitts instead, because.... well, you get the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 7 hours ago, SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME said: Playing next to Hughes this past season probably masked some of the deficiencies in Tanev’s game, and the underlying numbers already point to him being in the midst of “age related decline.” And while he didn’t miss games in 2019-20, it’s the only season of his career where he’s actually managed this, so it’s really not something we’re likely to see repeated. Tanev has a significant injury history and has put a lot of wear and tear on his body. He’s just not a player I’d bet on remaining healthy and fully effective into his mid 30s. It’s only because of the COVID shutdown that he didn’t miss a game. He was hurt during the last game of the shortened season, and would have missed a good chunk of the stretch drive...again. Love Tanev, but it’s definitely time to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuktravella Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 there is no way tanev is worth 5-6 mill at 31 let alone him getting paid that at 35 i let ct walk if pens giving him a 5 yr deal @ 5 or 6 a yr hell 3 more you get a alex pietrangelo dman that doesnt pp pk scores hits gets 40-50 points every yr can shut down good forwards 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Games played for Tanev going back to the first year where he didn't spend any time in the AHL. 2013-14 64 games 2014-15 70 games 2015-16 69 games 2016-17 53 games 2017-18 42 games 2018-19 55 games and yeah this year was looking like an 82 game season except for that injury at the end of regular season.

grandmaster Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Given the Pens just got a defenceman in Mike Matheson, I hardly think they will go after Tanev now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10pavelbure96 Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 (edited) I just seen something circulating fb that the pens are going to offer Tanev a 5 year deal. Edited September 26, 2020 by 10pavelbure96 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rutherford also said he does not plan to be active in free agency, even if he were able to free up enough cap space to do so. “I don’t see that happening,” Rutherford said. “We could possibly do a free agent that slips through the cracks, but it won’t be one of the big guys in the first 48 hours.” Edited September 26, 2020 by mll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy has clutch written on his face. B. Tanev and Motter as our bottom 6 LWers? Yes please. That's two dogs right there causing havoc for opposing players in all 3 zones. But alas, all I have are what ifs and I wish. Seeing them both in Pittsburgh would be okay I guess. Lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
