Alain is a Rogers employee who works at 680 NewsRadio Toronto. There’s no reason to think he *wouldn’t* have sources, even if it’s news we don’t want to hear.
This comes a day after Dreger (mouthpiece for the Leafs organization) [was talking about how Treveling is going to target Tanev and Zadorov hard in free agency](https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/toronto-maple-leafs/latest-news/report-maple-leafs-targeting-pending-unrestricted-free-agents-chris-tanev-and-nikita-zadorov-to-reinforce-blueline).
Sounds like Treveling is willing to overpay on value and term to get them back. He’s just building Calgary’s roster in Toronto again.
Et tu Tanev?
Just give me Toffoli at this point.
Not too surprising given Treliving signed Tanev when he left Vancouver originally.
Tanev gets the bag and gets to play his final years in his hometown? Honestly I think that sounds great for Tanev. He’ll finally get the media attention he deserves for how good he’s been all his career. He also likely screws Torontos cap situation further.
Dillion you are a Canuck!
So we’re just going to get nobody?
I am very not confident with Soucy-Myers as the second pairing going into next season.
Things are shaping up for the team to give a defenseman that’s not worth it too much money + term.
Getting more and more likely we are going to see a run it back type of team, with all of the rumours that the people we are targeting are already earmarked for other teams.
That being said, anything can happen, of course.
He will be on the LTIR playing for the leaves.
Tanev in a Leafs jersey is a NIGHTMARE and I’m going to be sick 🤢😭 Rather have him in a Bruins jersey tbh 😩
But it makes sense coz Treliving is there now so…
Why would you hurt us like this, Tanev?
Leafs are tampering
We have all seen how good Rutherford, Allvin, Castognay, and Granato are at identifying and securing talent via signings and trades. Let’s give them until 2 or 3 July to see what they cook up before we get too worried about the sky falling. Their track record suggests that they will make things happen.
I’m happy for tanev. I will only be upset if he signs for under 3.5 million. But changes are. He is getting 4+ after his playoffs. And frankly, I get concerned with his injury history and not sure I’d want to commit that much.
Been waiting on that one for like a decade
Treliving just wants to be the Canucks so bad
Fuck off
I mean Tanev is from Toronto and at his age getting 1 last contract close to home is quite appealing.
friendship ended
I’m happy for the guy.
whats with treliving and the canucks sloppy seconds. What a cuck
what happen to « vancouver is becoming the premier destination for ufas »
It aint over til its over. Havent given up on him or Zadorov. Remember Hamhuis’ rights were traded twice before he signed with us
Tanev rights were traded
The Leafs actually put Tanev in a really shitty position bc if he doesn’t sign there he’s going to look like a dick in his own hometown
Does having Taney now before July 1 allow them to sign him for an extra year (8) vs 7? Would this allow him to spread his salary out over a longer term and allow his AAV to be lower?
The leafs just don’t get it eh? The dude will be 35 years old this year is he really going to be beneficial for a deep playoff off run? Highly doubt it
remember when dim jimbo let this guy walk to UFA at the prime of his career? Didn’t even bother to trade his rights lol.
that being said, loleafs if they sign him to 5+ years.
Aight, fuck you too tan man.
Fuck tanev. Jk hope he kills it there
So the Leafs Cup windows is down to it’s final two years before a complete rebuild🙄
Has played more than 70 games once in his career and not getting younger.
Our list of allies grows thin.
Come on Tanev , why would you sign with the Leafs. I want to see you in a Canucks jersey or lifting the cup and this does neither ..
I hope he gets an absolute boat load of cash.
Honestly the guy deserves a massive bag just for the amount of teeth he’s left on the ice! He will make a dentist rich too when he retires.
Well, this sucks.
Tanev Injury prone, that’s why Dallas traded him.
