QuinnNorris Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 https://apple.news/AM6SYbZcQT62mm0TraI2qPA I hope this link works. First time trying this. Tanev was always one of my favourite Canucks. Much like Bieska he bled blue. If we are going for a cup I couldn’t want any other Dman to join our roster for this run. It seems Hughes is advocating for this to happen.

Coryberg Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 This goes back to when it came out that Calgary wasn't going to re-sign any of their UFAs. That was before we traded for Zadorov. Dhaliwal is just re-hashing what he already heard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good situation to have though, as we in this market know how injuries come into play with this team. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKSR Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Hughes plays over 24min a night. No way Tanev can keep up that pace over a long playoff run. If he's brought in to play 2nd pairing, I'd be ok with that, but I'd drop his minutes substantially. I'd imagine a shutdown pair of Soucy and Tanev would be incredible.

Popular Post King Heffy Posted January 25 Popular Post Share Posted January 25 I don't think players should have any input on roster construction, unless they're asked by management regarding what a former teammate is like in the room. 1 1 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Tim Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 We don't really need him if I'm being honest? If we're fully healthy, Juulsen is our #7, Friedman/Hirose/Woo/McWard first call up from Abby. That's pretty strong depth IMO 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is being loaned to Abby on a conditioning stint. He would have to pass though waivers to go down otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tocchet seems to like Myers.. Adding a Dman at the TDL is not about when we're healthy, it's about covering a key position if/when key guys are injured during the playoffs. I agree we have some good depth for the bottom 2 pairings (Zad, Soucy, Cole, Myers, Juulsen, Friedman, McWard). But I think the team is specifically looking for someone that can pair with Hughes in case of a Hronek injury. Imagine Hronek is out injured for the playoffs, we can't rely on Myers or Juulsen to fill that 1RD spot. Puck moving Dmen that might be available at the TDL are: Tanev, Carrier, Fabbro, Jokiharju,...

That's pretty strong depth IMO The Canucks have been very lucky this year, but they've gone through 10 or 12 defenceman some years. You can never have too much D depth. Having said that, no way I'm giving up a 1st for a rental of Tanev. The ask would have to be lower, but some other team with a less solid defence core than Vancouver is going to overpay. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather just send a late pick for another Juulsen type instead of spending a 1st or whatever crazy price they're asking for Tanev - he's known to be injury prone, getting older and slower, and just isn't worth that from a financial standpoint. Rather we go after some younger more cost-controlled guys if we're giving up our 1st. Also, how would we fit Tanev/other trade acquisition under our cap? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I agree with the sentiment, but a Juulsen type is not going to be capable of playing 25 mins/night with Hughes. Look at what playing with a defensively responsible PMD has done for Hughes' game this season - we need a guy that can emulate that (won't be as good as Hronek of course). We don't need more third pairing depth like Juulsen. Loved Tanev when he was on our team, but don't want to overpay for an older guy that we probably won't resign. Would rather target one of those younger players I mentioned, like Carrier or Fabbro. Mgmt needs to consider long term fit and what they are doing with all of the UFA Dmen next season too. How will we make the cap work this year? I expect they will be shipping out cap (most likely Kuz) which will give them some space to add a top 6 forward and a PMD (perhaps with salary retained).

Jester13 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Hughes - Hronek Soucy - Myers Cole/Zadorov - Tanev I mean, for the right price, I'd love to have Tanev on the bottom pair and watch him win the cup with us this year. That's a cup-winning backend. 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
