If Tanev is more than open to stay here (and haven't heard he wants out) you have to be floored by an offer.
I think Tanev will still fetch similar returns next year, so if you don't get the premium this year and he wants to stay, you re sign him trade deadline day, to another season...he's worth more to development of some young players than a 4th round magic bean from Ottawa, when you could get similar or better than that for him a year from now.

Unless Conroy is aware, Tanev does not want to resign....
