we're going to miss their personalities but these terms both guys signed for is a huge no for the Canucks, especially this Tanev deal.

I think you nailed the majority of Canuck fans feelings on the 2 players...
The guy I worry about is Tanev who could become the Flames version of Loui Eriksson especially when you consider a flat cap for maybe the next 2 or 3 years.
Hughes elevated the play of Tanev, not to mention Luke Schenn who was paired with Hughes in his first season...
Actually I'd prefer Schenn over Tanev even before considering the contracts...
Pairing Tanev with a quick puck mover will be key otherwise he eats too many pucks which has led to too many injuries...
