[5Hollywood5]

LOLOLOL LET'S GO TRE!!!

 

[Mobiandi]

Does he have a no movement clause?

Full for all 6 yrs

 

[Lahey]

i dont think he plays out the full deal but he is what we need

 

[Dirty Dog]

Does he have a no movement clause?

YES haha

 

[MajorWeber]

Haha, good signing for the rest of the Atlantic

 

[LemmyUlanov55]

As much as I like his play, it's not going to work out 'til he's 40. That's going to hurt..

 

[Sideline]

Woof

 

[super6646]

He’s not playing out that contract. Full stop. It’s 2-3 years and ltir wink wink. With the injuries this guy has had, I’m sure they’ll find something to put him on the back burner when the time comes.

 

[canadianmagpie]

I wanted Tanev to come back to Vancouver, but there's no way that I would have paid that much for him.

 

[Dirty Dog]

I mean, the GM that left a team full of longterm questionable contracts has a pattern

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

6 years?!?!?

 

[shaner8989]

4.5 is an absolute steal for one of the best defensive D in the league

He will be sent to robidas island after year 3 anyway

 

[Jean Luc Discard]

We can and we will.

 

[LivingRentFree]

I love the people freaking out about this .

Lower AAV because of longer term.

With the cap increasing this will look better each year until he is likely shipped to the island.

 

[Gilles Meloche]

6 years??

 

[Bond]

Hahaha there’s the Tre I know from the Flames.

 

[DCDM]

Holy smokes Tre, not great

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Inb4 Tanev refuse to LTIR

 

[Acetylene]

Well. At least he is quality, but damned that term…

 

[DJJones]

Objectively horrible contract. Should have been 3M max for 6 years. Be lucky if you get two good years

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

6 years for a guy who turns 35 and can never stay healthy
Holy thats bad

 

[SoupNazi]

Wow.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

By January I expect sizeable # of Leaf fans to be complaining that Tanev is Brodie 2.0

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Probably get hurt in the first game of the season for the first 2 years and then when he's broken and useless will have miraculous health.
