You do know that just a year ago Tanev would have been considered the #4 d-man on the Canucks behind Elder, Hughes and Myers?
What would the Flames have to give Vancouver to get back Hughes? Would you be at all happy if somehow the Flames got a clone of Hughes to play for them?
I would suggest that Zaradov would not be considered at at as good as OEL or Keith by most unbiased analysts. There might be a reason that the Flames did not have to give any assets replace Gio with Zadarov/Gudbrandson
When you start pushing Valimaki and Andersson as top-4 d-men then based on the most recent years performance then the Flames are hoping for a small manageable dumpster fire.

Lmao, Hanifin and Tanev were one of the top performing pairings in the league at defending last season.
Yes, Tanev was, but turns out he's pretty damn solid and he elevated when he came here. So what does his past reputation even matter?
Your post sounds so butthurt its hilarious.
[Insert garbage] is garbage?!? [Insert solid pairing] isn't garbage?!?!
What! Huh!
So funny that this is news to you. Have you watched the handful of guys you mentioned?
Yes, OEL is subpar and terrible when considered he makes 9M, and Keith is considered to be, at this point, one of the worst defensive d-men in the game. And both will be getting top four ice time and responsibilities on there respective teams.
