Speculation: Where does Tanev sign and what contact does he get?

Basically the title is the entire thread premise. Does Vancouver have the cap space for him?

I was thinking he could be a good fit for Pittsburgh as we could use a 3RD, and his brother plays here.

Dumolin-Letang
Petterson-Marino
Riikola-Tanev
POJ-Ruhwedel
(Johnson shot off into the sun)

Seems like a defensive unit that can contend for a cup.

Tough call. Vancouver really needs him on D but they are going to have to let some players go if they sign Markstrom. Then probably sign one of Tanev or Toffoli unless they can move a fair amount of salary.

This would be a fantastic fit for Toronto.
Had a great year, Healthy all year and playoffs.
Steady, Reliable, incredible character guy.

Absolutely perfect fit, even tho so many people under appreciate him.

Canucks should really find a way to keep him if possible. That's a sizable hole if he leaves.

what kind of term and $ is TO fans willing to give Tanev? Maybe a sign and trade so Canucks recoup a better pick or player in return??

Due to Benning giving all that money to Myers last off season they likely have to choose between Toffoli and Tanev this year unless they find a taker for Ericcson's contract.

Id imagine most of the league will be interested in a right shot top 4 D.

5-6mil/ year for 4-5 years.

Term is key for Tanev. Been injured a lot in the prior few seasons. Can’t be taking another chance after a healthy season missing only a couple of games. Has to get term.

RHD that is dependable will get paid.

Van should let Toffoli and Markstrom walk, sign Tanev and Pietrangelo.

Edler - Pietrangelo
Hughes - Tanev
Rathbone/Juolevi - Myers
Benn

Defense sorted.

I would say 3 years 5mil seems reasonable. He could probably get a bit more if he went elsewhere, we just can’t afford to pay him more if we want to keep everyone.
