If you think Tanev is the worst option you clearly don’t know hockey. He’s arguably the best option available…. Unless you’re referring to injuries then that would be the only leg you have to stand on.
Injuries + age/style is a perfectly valid leg to stand on. He's a good player but giving him 5-6-7 years is risky, even if you plan to eventually put him on LTIR (which he has to be down with). LTIR is a potential headache. Still, gotta get creative so we'll see what the # comes in at
