Wherever there are cheeseburgers.
Tanev isn't that replaceable. He forechecks at an elite level, draws penalties at an elite level, penalty kills at an elite level, eats defensive zone starts for breakfast... 4th line or not, he gives Sullivan 14 great minutes every night. The dude is earning that paycheck and might find himself in a top-9 role as the season goes on.

And on track to put up around 40 points, and over 300 hits....

I hated the term for Tanev but he's just so likeable even at 3.5M. I haven't once been agitated with him this season. He does so much underlying for this team especially getting back to playing with speed.

I don't think his contract hurts our cup window. In 4-5 years it probably won't matter much with our Stars in their late 30's

Yeah, dude just kicks ass. Being a 4th liner in the NHL gets you $800,000 but it's really looking like being the best 4th liner in the NHL gets you 3.5 x 6.
