So you may be right, but it's hard to tell. Just look what guys like Cole and Zadorov did to our team. Especially the top line. Regher used to do that to others. Good defense is important.
Tanev is no Reggie. But the Flames need a good defensive guy, a guy that blocks shots and goes all out every shift. Tanev is pretty good at that

Well, I have been saying that our defense isn't good enough, and I'm not against signing Tanev as such. I don't
hate the signing.
Buuuut...
Four years is IMO a lot of years for a guy for whom playing ALMOST 70 games is an achievement worth noting, and who while fine isn't what you'd call a difference maker. Not crazy about the cap hit either.
