Sportsnet: Vancouver willing to trade Chris Tanev

[Scott Malkinson]

Thats ok, we don't need Kapanen anyways, he's a dime a dozen player.

Yeah, you've got a great prospect pool lol.

 

[cyris]

Not on my phone.

Fair enough. It’s been a pretty long time since I started a thread so I wasn’t sure.

 

[polarbearcub]

Marner or nylander. Otherwise no deal

 

[WhatTheDuck]

I'm hearing from multiple sources that Tanev may be injury prone - E4

Understandable, but he’s just entering his prime, on an amazing contract, is a RHD, and plays the top competition game in and game out. He’s getting injuries because he’s honestly carrying our entire defensive core every night. He barely gets any offensive minutes. Every team should be taking that gamble, especially if they’d use him as a #2/3/4

The injuries are honestly the only thing that scare me away from him. I don't really think there is a better fit with the style of player the Leafs need as long term the role Hainsey is playing in needs to be filled and Tanev would probably fit like a glove playing beside Rielly. What the price would come down to has been argued non stop but I absolutely see the value in having a player like Tanev.

 

[trellaine201]

He’s Joffrey Lupul light.

 

[Cor]

That's like the Canucks offering for Rielly

Granlund, Gaunce and a conditional 2nd, becomes a first if Reilly plays a full season

No, because Rielly isn’t injury prone, and Jeremy Bracco is a legitimate prospect while Gaunce is a 23 year old AHL quality player. Carrick is also a young RHD to fill a void.

So either your comment is knowingly bullshit or your talent evaluation is off

 

[Scott Malkinson]

Hahahahahaa

Marner or nylander. Otherwise no deal

 

[Goulet17]

Chia special, Benning special, or Sakic special?

Tanev is an RHD, correct? Why would Colorado possibly look to trade for an RHD?

 

[NeoCanuck]

Canucks will probably be looking for something like Liljegren + TOR 1st in 2018.

Won't happen, but that's what Lindenning will be looking for.

 

[besser]

Yeah, you've got a great prospect pool lol.

Are you being sarcastic?

 

[Ryuji Yamazaki]

It’s wiggity wiggity whack!

 

[BreakingGood]

my hot take on chris tanev is that not only are canucks fans not overrating him, they might actually be underrating him lol. chris tanev rules so hard.

No, because Tanev despite being injury-prone is an ELITE shutdown defenseman (real NHL teams are aware of this, look at McDavid's comments on Tanev and when he played with Riellly)

Prospects like Jeremy Bracco are common, are we supposed to be shocked that a player in his d+3 year has 16 points in 28 games in the AHL? foh lol

Leafs fan actually overrate their prospects beyond comprehension it's unreal. It's like them believing Kapanen is pretty much solidifed as a top 6 winger in the NHL.

 

[M C D A V I D]

Lucic + 1st 2019 unprotected for Tanev + 3rd

 

[M2Beezy]

They really shouldnt trade him it will destroy our d unless theres some stud d coming back who can jump into the lineup IMMIDEATELY

Dermott comes to mind but obvi cannot take the minutes Tanev does. Also Toronto needs a dman but us and Leafs fans get into a brawl every time we discuss the possibility of a Tanev trade so I will stay away from that proposal maybe theres another team thats a possibility if we have to trade the Tan Man

 

[Bitz and Bites]

Well,Travis Hamonic has never played a full season either (averages about 70 games a year and only 49 last year) and it didn't exactly hurt his value.

As other posters have said,he mostly gets tough defensive minutes and first pairing PK duties so he's going to be absorbing punishment and plenty of rubber during the season.Most of his injuries are from blocking shots,it seems,and nothing chronic.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

His injuries are freak injuries, he’s just been unlucky. He’s a top pairing shutdown dman.

1st+Top prospect is the price

When you are hurt as often as Tanev you aren't "unlucky" you are injury prone

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Yeah, you've got a great prospect pool lol.

Really hope you’re joking because if not I don’t think you watch hockey...

Pettersson
Demko
Juolevi
Gaudette
Lind
Gadjovich
Etc...

We have 10x the prospect pool you have...

 

[Jyrki Lumme]

Future considerations+a 7th. That's a special package.

 

[ReggieDunlop7]

I can't believe Tanev is actually a plus player on that Vancouver team. They are absolutely awful, but he's still a +9.

Yes, Tanev is great at defense. However he has 0 offense and is injury prone.

A young controllable RHD, a good prospect and hopefully a 1st Round Pick is good value. Whether you like it or not.

Bracco’s P.P.G is quite impressive for a 21 year old AHL player. He’s not an elite prospect, so his numbers aren’t mind blowing, but if you pay attention to the AHL (which I assume you don’t) you’d know he’s had a very quality season. Especially since the Leafs actually focus on development and have had him in defensive situations and have had him focusing on his strength/conditioning.

So whatever, your opinion means nothing, and neither does mine at the end of the day. No point trying to convince each other.

Cheers

Yeah cause Kapanen is a top 6 winger!
