I looked at this and thought, "Whoa, that's...not much for Tanev." This is...figure, #56 overall in 2024, a middling prospect with a 6th D ceiling, a late pick two years down the road, and a 3rd in two years if and only if they make the finals. A lot of meh for one of the better D on the market. And they got double retention for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a 2nd, a 20 y.o. 2nd round prospect, a conditional 3rd, and a 4th for a 34 y.o. rental whose best days are behind him. He's not bad, but it's a name grab and that's the problem. I wouldn't be too happy with a 2nd, Adam Sykora, conditional 3rd, and a 4th for Adam Henrique. Would you?

No, but I don't think anyone believes that the prospect they sent over is of the same caliber as Sykora. They sent over a younger Matthew Robertson-like player. And I would be just fine with a very late 2nd, a third that's unlikely to flip, Robertson, and a 4th for Henrique. That seems plenty reasonable.

That seems plenty reasonable. It's easy to say this with the ability of hindsight with Robertson. His value was different 2 years ago at 20 years old as a recent 2nd round pick.

This is not a 29-year-old UFA. This is a 34-year-old with a lot of miles on his tires and plays a style where any shift could be his last. They gave up a ton of value and jump through hoops from a retention standpoint to make this happen and at best he's a second pairing D on that team, most likely a third pairing. All that being said, they believe in that team and that team is a wagon so from their POV it could be worth it. The Rangers aren't one Chris Tanev away.

Kevin Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Not that I think Tanev is very good but there’s definitely a premium on right defensemen. I can’t think of too many others that I heard were available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
