Marner or nylander for Tanev
Kadri is fair value.
There is absolutely no way that either of those players would ever be dealt for Tanev, as useful as he is. Nylander and Marner are elite forward prospects. Don't be silly.
But Tanev certainly has value. I don't want to discredit the player. He's a solid D. I just think it would take somebody with a higher pedigree for Toronto to even consider moving those guys.

This site is pretty good. I'm not sure I'd call him elite in that area, I think some of the hype is unwarranted.
Think he's a good #2. Cost would be ~~Nylander. Incentive for VAN is, well, they aren't winning a cup in the sedin era. So get some really good young players and rebuild the team instead of consistently and insistently signing the Vrbatas and Erikssons of the world in a feeble attempt to scrape and claw back to former glory at the expense of wasting a lot of years of the franchise.
Zaitsev is better than Tanev.
Thanks, though.
Not sure why this thread is still alive.....Canucks are team still desperately thin on the blueline, and the Leafs are rebuilding and just not in a position to give up an 'A' grade prospect for Tanev....so just can't see a great fit here....but looking at the Leafs goaltending mess, wondering what a package involving Tanev and Thatcher Demko might fetch from the Leafs?....only trouble is the 'Nucks will need an impact d-man coming back.

By absolutely no metric is Zaitsev better than Tanev
Don't really see a deal here... Kadri isnt worth Tanev, and the Leafs aren't close enough to the playoffs that they need to trade a blue chipper for a win now defenseman like Tanev. Although if they were, Nylander for Tanev would probably be the closest. We'd probably have to add to Tanev to get Marner.
When they were on the same team (IIHF) Rielly was better.
No Tanev trade would happen. As Tanev simply does not have the value of Nylander, Marner, or Rielly. And I don't expect that Vancouver would want a package.
The Leafs absolutely would not be picking top 5 with Tanev added for nothing on their roster.Is Tanev a leader for the Canucks? Tanev would be the perfect fit to play with Rielly and especially if he can come in and be a leader. We don't have any capable vets on the backend. Gardiner isn't a leader and Hunwick and Polak are " good pros" but they aren't NHL calibre.
Would Canucks entertain a deal where the main piece is the Leafs first in 2017? Very likely that's a top 5 pick

Good chance Zaitsev is as good as Tanev. He's really good. And yes I'm aware that Tanev is quite good.
Tanev just straight up doesn't get you Nylander or Marner, or even close for that matter. Let alone Nylander or Marner+
Think Marner or Nylander+ to get the conversation started
If it takes a player like McCann to get Gudbranson and Hall to get Larsson then Tanev could easily fetch Nylander + Marner. Tanev is underrated.
That whole post and you only reply to disagree with my last 7 words.
