redfire11 Posted October 10, 2020 Report Share Posted October 10, 2020 His contract has to be worth 1 or 2 mill more not having Harmonic come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had stretches where the bad was so bad but the good was so good. Polarizing. More confusing is he's thought of an as offensive Dman because of his skating but he's actually a defensive defenseman covering a lot of ice with his skating. He had little offense once inside the offensive zone. Offense only came from 3-on-3 OT which will be massively missed. He was one of the leagues best in OT to be honest. His turnovers came early in his career but he's a smart veteran player now. He knows his limits. But biggest weakness for me remains he's too soft. Zero sandpaper, not intimidating, and easy to play against. We are really letting him go at his peak and he's easily a $6-mil player. He carried Gio in the playoffs so that's how good he was. Took a discount for term and going back home. He will be missed. 4-years is just right. TOR is getting a very good player on a very good contract. Bingo on all accounts! I forgot about how deadly we were 3 on 3. Brodie was strong there. We were always in the top rankings 3 on 3, that’s gone. Got to find other ways to collect points now, ways that work better in the playoffs. Shed the frills and put on the work boots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how they could match. They waived Johnson, but still have to sign Cirelli and Sergachev. And sign at least 1 more D. TD, I’m with you that this should have been the move.

It’s not that he’s bad per se, but yes he plays hard minutes. Gets injured. And I recently saw a stat chart on him when the Penguins were looking at him and apparently he gets caved in a bit. I believe there were still better options available. Might have been worse than I thought: https://www.pensburgh.com/2020/9/22/21450595/penguins-rumors-free-agent-chris-tanev-canucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travel_dude Posted October 10, 2020 Report Share Posted October 10, 2020 I'm not a big Tanev fan, but he was pretty steady in the playoffs. Oh well, I guss we will find out what he's like soon enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Na, that’s bad business, legal business but bad business. COL is still gonna get us back for the ROR OS, their just waiting for an opportunity. Best not to have other teams after you.

Doesn’t mean the results will be the same but I don’t like this signing. Why is everyone surprised? If you don't draft RHS then you have to overpay for them via UFA or trade. There's no other way. That's pretty much why you have to draft them yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CheersMan Posted October 10, 2020 Report Share Posted October 10, 2020 Don’t know a lot about Tanev, but he seems to stand out when playing the Flames. I’ll take a physical Dman right now and I think that is what Tanev is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might be the added bonus here. Markstrom gets his ace defender to join him. They have familiarity and trust. Should help both players.

But since he's RHS RD, you have to pay that extra $1-mil premium. It's just reality of supply/demand. Free market on display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m surprised the Flames had interest in a dman who is very likely on the decline of his career and hasn’t been great the last two years. if you are insistent on RS there were other options to fill that need. This is about targeting the wrong player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is about targeting the wrong player. Trues. He's 30 and battled injuries his entire career. Will be good for two more seasons easily but we should see a big drop off by year 3... not looking forward to that. I still want to target Cernak. We should've offer sheeted $4.5-mil x 4 to Cernak. TB may pass on it because no choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlameFan4Life Posted October 10, 2020 Report Share Posted October 10, 2020 We should also consider the fact that Tanev won't be expected to play as much of the hard minutes and will be a second pairing guy. I think he may end up having a better season it that role. He is reliable and I like the signing right shot dman like we needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horsman1 Posted October 10, 2020 Report Share Posted October 10, 2020 warching the analynics of why they were targeting certain goalies was a real eye opener.. Markstrom's strengths fit perfectly for where the Flames have been scored on the last couple of years..If all goes aS PLANNED..
