Tanev was really good last year, defensively. However, brings nothing offensively, has dealt with injuries his whole career (Last year was his most games played % wise)

I would almost rather have Seattle take Tanev, be out from his contract (which I don't think will age well)- and next year have 11.5 million free (and maybe Gio TDL assets) to build a new D around Hanifin and Andersson.

That being said Tanev is 100% a Sutter guy to I actually expect Hanifin to be dealt and both protected
I'm 95% sure they'd take Tanev, but only 50% they'll take Gio.

Tanev would be an ideal partner for one of the many young D-men they will have.

They can make better use of their cap space than Gio, IMO.
