Speculation- Hughes wanting Canucks to trade for Tanev

Two trades :
To VAN : C.Tanev  (x% retained)
To CGY I.Cole, D-Petey

 

To VAN : Monahan (x% retained)
To MTL : 1st Rd Pick (2024), L.Karlsson (They need C) + Futures considerations if Monahan re sign.

Trade one - Not in a million years.   D-Petey looks to have a good shot at the NHL.    And im not sure Tanev is > Cole (given the team chemistry this year).    To me any of our regular D's are lateral moves with the exception of Zadorov, but I'd rather we have his size, durability etc.    We add Tanev for depth, unless someone is injured.      He'd be a tiny upgrade on Myers.    So trading Myers maybe, to free to cap for a forward deal, and then bring in Tanev.    Myers was fun to watch last playoffs, made guys pay for every second in our zone.   Tanev isn't going to do that.

definitely can't lose cole, that's robbing peter to pay paul. cole is vital to this team, he's the membrane between the coaching staff and the players. 

 

now, that being said, I also see him as sort of like a transition player, here short term to be a teacher's aid for tocc, basically. I fully expect him to move on in the offseason, but could see him sticking around another year or 2 depending on the team's needs. I bet he goes back east though.

Ray Borque is the story that really got not only a team going, but practically the entire fanbase/league rooting for them.   And they had some great teams in their way along the way.   Roy beating Broduer in a 7 game series, and winning the Conn Smythe again, was just as much fun as doing it for Borque, and watching Borque play perfectly for the last time was emotional, was still an excellent top pairing D (2nd in Norris his final season).  

 

Not sure what sort of boost Tanev will have in the ice, but in the locker room agree there will be some, and Tochett is going to love him.    Wouldn't be a bad idea, but think if we are going to win, EP needs a partner.   Our team D and Defense is so much better then last years.  

Tanev makes sense if we go into the playoffs with an injury.    Going in healthy though, who are we sitting?   Myers?   He was probably our best D last playoffs only guy who could handle Vegas's forwards anyways and that included Edler and Tanev.  

looks like the avs may be attempting the same thing with zach parise this year. long career, no cup. the guy is kind of a legend for some reason, at least in the states. 

 

for my money he's one of the most overrated and, more importantly, overpaid players in recent memory, and colorado sure as hell isn't bringing him in because he's a difference maker on the ice. experience, status, leadership, and purpose.

I think if the goal is to add Tanev, then we need to trade out Kuz or Mik for a guy like Vatrano with cap retained.  It gives us the cap space to acquire Tanev without taking out one of our current D.  It will also likely make Tanev much cheaper because we're taking the full cap hit back.  Kinda like Zadorov.

 

To ANA

Kuzmenko

1st

 

To VAN

Vatrano @ 50%

 

About 3.7m cap savings from the above deal.

 

Sending Friedman back down, we have our $4.5m to take on Tanev with no cap retention.

 

To CAL

2nd round pick

 

To VAN

Tanev

Fantastic depth on D, but I'd still like more depth up front with a bottom 6 guy though.

Just carrying on with this thought.  Monahan at 50% retained would be a nice addition to round out the forward group without costing a fortune.

That "playoffs" was also 4 years ago. He was good but his penalties were also very costly. I agree though not sure how much better overall Tanev is at this point. Way better defender though, and he is pretty tough even though he does get injured a lot.

I think you keep Soucy Myers together as they've had obvious chemistry ... and Zadorov Tanev obviously have familiarity, however I have Cole ahead of Zadorov every day of the week

Not opposed to it, but it's too early.    And only if the cost is like Zadarov, which  it likely won't be.   Someone else (Leafs?), probably offer more.   Not sure if he's claused up either.    Worse ideas out there, but think Myers intangibles, do matter as well.   And if it ain't broke, don't fix it too.

as much as I like him, I'm starting to think Mik might be a payable chip.  However, he is also a guy who can play on any line as he's a solid two way player, and those guys are important in the playoffs.  This management group has a goof thing going here, they need to tread lightly so as to not upset the applecart with this group

Yup, I agree whole heartedly there. We look very solid when Soucy is healthy. Zads can't be traded back to the Flames and he just got here. Definitely see a need for some depth there no matter what though.

 

Tanev to Toronto seems likely, although I hope they miss the playoffs.

I don't see Tanev as an upgrade on Myers, at all.  At best, a lateral move

 

To me, Cole is a 6/7 dman........he's got some great attributes, but he's defintely slowing down and he gives the puck away, alot

Having an extra guy would give us the depth to rotate guys in and out and keep them fresh. 

 

The way I see it:

 

Hughes Hronek

Soucy Myers

Cole/Zadorov Tanev

 

Still think the top 6 is the focus but having that D and Demko in net would be very solid.

Having Tanev would be nice, I agree......one of my all time fave Canucks.  If they can get him on the cheap, I'd be all for it, which is highly doubtful.  Otherwise, pass for me.

I believe we see a deal including Tanev & Lindholm. It will be pricey, but worth it.

Well from the sounds of it we have interest in both Tanev and Lindholm.

 

I would guess it would be part of a bigger deal with Kuzmenko, picks and prospects going the other way and retention on Tanev.

Yah it depends on what you're looking for. Myers is definitely built for playoffs with his size. Definitely a positive attribute.

 

I've definitely noticed Cole slowing down too ... and he makes the odd bad read/play because of it. I find him as a glue guy between Hughes/Hronek and the rest of the D though. He is still sharp enough to make the right play most of the time while the rest suffer from a combination of lack of IQ/mobility/skill. I don't have confidence in Zadorov or Myers without someone there to watch their backs. Soucy is better but he is a slower all around player too.

 

Tanev is rock solid defensively and I like that for a playoff run.

As I said in a previous post ........a kuz deal here is tricky.  Not only are you selling ridiculously low on him, as a 39 goal scorer, but he is obviously a very very popular person in the room.  They've got a great thing going here, I'm not sure I'd mess with chemistry that much at this point

I don't think so.  We know how tanevs story in van goes and they can't risk having two dmen out in the playoffs, with tanev and soucy.

 

If they can get tanev cheap, sure.

 

Ultimately, I think it's moo because the Canucks can and, likely, will be outbid

Tanev was also a very popular guy in the room though so maybe it balances out.

 

I just don’t see how else the cap would work unless you’re trading Garland or Mikheyev and I don’t see that happening.

 

Calgary would also be selling low on Lindholm as he’s not having a very good season (something like 1 goal in the last 23)

Tanev was injured here because we had poor depth and our system made it so he was constantly having to block shots.

 

In Tocchets system we spend much less time in our own zone. Tanev has been much healthier in Calgary for a reason.

 

Also if costs are comparable maybe Conroy does right by Tanev and send him where he actually wants to go.

A 6/7 who leads the team by a county mile in PK time and has averages 19:10 time on ice a game? Does soucy get top unit PP time with Abby in your alternate reality?

He was injured here for a wide variety of reasons and that's the playbook they have to work with imo.  Thats one of the reasons they get him for cheap or pass.....if it were me.  I like their dcorp, so I don't think they need to do much there, I'd rather they look to shore up elsewhere

Most of the reasons were that he was constantly having to go back into his own zone increasing the amount of times he got hit and then the team not being able to move the puck out so he’d have to block shots.

 
I agree that other areas need to be addressed first and the cost would have to be right. But for something like a 2nd and a B prospect with 50% retention it would be worth it.

 

As part of a bigger deal involving Lindholm Id also be in favour of. As long as Lekkermaki and Willander aren’t involved

im happy.
