If it were me I would burn a year of rotating 4 assistants then go from there. Tkachuk is the ideal long-term captain if you're serious about re-establishing a core. And while I think Tanev is the appropriate choice right now, to me it would indicate the uncertainty of the team and the lack of a long-term plan.
