Spec: Is Chris Tanev good enough to be selected into the HHOF?

[Ianturnedbull]

Don't come at me too hard. Clearly there are no offensive statistics to satisfy you or anyone else. Yet he is considered by many to be a great player. It's hard to believe that he's played on 3 other teams after Vancouver. Why wasn't he a VAN CAN for life player? He does have a World Championship under his belt.

Why is it so hard to recognize great players?

 

[BillyOcean]

Lol wut

 

[WarriorofTime]

No

 

[Ghetty Green]

Lol. All it took was 6 months in a Leafs jersey...

 

[hamzarocks]

If he was 25 and not 35 hed be on his way if he held this level of play for another 10 years

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Yes because he plays for the Leafs

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Lol. All it took was 6 months in a Leafs jersey...

Why didn't you say something when he was selected on the WC team?

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Yes because he plays for the Leafs

He had a great career and was considered an excellent player long before he became a leaf. Where were you then?

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Dude, you’re 2 weeks late for April Fools.

 

[GlitchMarner]

He's a guy you really like having on your team and a warrior... but hell no.

He doesn't have the accolades. Has never come close to a Norris or been a top five defensemen.

Because in Jim Benning’s exact own words: “We ran out of time”.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Love me some Chris Tanev but no not even close really.

 

[BringTheReign]

You’d think a Leafs fan would be more cautious this close to the postseason.

 

[the valiant effort]

 

[Fatass]

Of course not.

 

[MVP Zacha]

I sometimes drunk post as well.

 

[Regal]

No, but I feel like if he was an 06 or earlier player who won a bunch of championships on the Leafs or Habs and he might have been. He’s a guy you don’t fully appreciate unless you see him every night. But a better version like Slavin won’t even get in.

 

[All Mod Cons]

What?

 

[Satoru Gojo]

For a minute I thought you were quoting that moron Mark Spector

 

[TruePowerSlave]

Hilarious oh please

No Craig Ludwig. No Tanev.

 

[MrHeiskanen]

Tanev is a pylon.

 

[Spawn]

He's been the exact same player this year that he's been for the past 10+ years lol

 

[Nikki Potnick]

The better question is, where were you?

 

[Mrfenn92]

No sir
