6 years for Tanev at $5 million per is insane at his age. The man is being held together with duct tape.

He's never made that much money in his entire career, and odds are his play drops off a cliff in the coming years.

Loleafs now give zad 5.5

If there's term, near 5 mil AAV for a gritty D turning 35 is a... choice. They need a D exactly like him, but damn.

It's expected of Treliving

WHAT THE ABSOLUTE f*** IS THIS

You hire Calgary Benning, you get Calgary Benning

 

[Sypher04]

Not a fan if we also gave him the long term
If this is a recalibration to a shorter term then I’m fine with it

 

[SI90]

Gotta see the years but can’t imagine it’s more than 3.

 

[JurassicTunga]

Good lord, Brad.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Gotta see the years but can’t imagine it’s more than 3.

It's probably going to be 5 or 6 years.

 

[tabness]

p good deal if he comes off the books when it's time to sign McDavid in a couple years

 

[Americanadian]

Do we trust Weekes or Friedman?

 

[Zarzh]

Please be 4+ years. Please be 4+ years. Please be 4+ years.

 

[Turin]

Pretty good if it's not a zillion years..

 

[Aashir Mallik]

I hate my team.

 

[Sypher04]

Gotta see the years but can’t imagine it’s more than 3.

I’d be okay with up to 4 at this AAV, absolute most.

 

[McDoused]

The league watching Treliving.

 

[Sypher04]

It's probably going to be 5 or 6 years.

I don’t see why we’d need to give him 5M average over 6 years. The only reason you go long long term with a 34 year old is to save money. 4 years tops if weekes is correct on this AAV

 

[hamzarocks]

Treliving might be the only motherf*** worse than Dubas

 

[HarrySPlinkett]

It’s really not as big a deal as some of y’all are acting - if Tanev is healthy, he’s super valuable.

If he’s not, he goes on LtIR.

But he’s not gonna just suck.

 

[Empoleon8771]

I don’t see why we’d need to give him 5M average over 6 years.

Because Brad Treliving is an idiot that has a history of giving out terrible deals to Tanev type of players.

 

[Agalloch]

Ok contract for 2 years, they most likely hope it gives them a Stanley Cup. That contract is way too long

 

[mr figgles]

Toronto and dmen that break down a year or two after being acquired. Name a more iconic duo
