from pierre:
"But I think Tanev gets dealt in the end. (Vancouver, by the way, tried hard to have him included in the Lindholm trade, but the price point was too high.) There are just too many teams with interest. The general price tag right now from Calgary is a second-round pick plus another asset, according to league sources. If a team would be willing to jump up to a first-round pick, theyโd probably get Tanev now."
do you give up a second and beeggren for tanev?
if the leafs offer a first do you beat it?
if hanifin costs you edvinsson or asp and a first (plus the $7m it costs to resign him) do you do it?
i dont do either. still have to pay seider and raymond. edvinsson could be hanifin in a couple years. a second for tanev might be doable but someone will beat it.
