lol What on earth would the Senators want with a rental Dman?

[dissentowner]

I can't see Tanev leaving Calgary for Ottawa this season.

I'd assume they would want to extend him?

Sure, every team could use a Tanev. But what would the frickin Sens want a rental for? They must think they can re-sign him I guess.

Whatever, pony up and he's all yours

[Calgary4LIfe]

Makes complete sense for them other than the term. That team needs leadership.

[Geeoff]

they can have him for their 1st LOL

[Dion]

You're fishing this time Friedman. He's not going to the Sens, He would want to go to a playoff team.

[ComixZone]

If they offer a 1st (of which they have two, their own and Detroit’s), Ottawa seems like a perfect spot for the Flames to send him.

Also perfect for Tanev as well - as Ottawa would likely overpay and over-term him to the moon..

[Royle9]

He’s from Ottawa isn’t he? Only reason I could see him doing it.. but odd destination given they won’t make the playoffs.

But I’ll take their 1st

Related to the rumour that Calgary's interested in Chychrun I wonder?

Grumble.

[dino7c]

They wanted Weegar last season, although he had a contract

Spitballing here but a hockey trade maybe? Mang and Tanev for Chychrun and a Pick?

Sounds like a good deal

If Ottawa is looking to move a D, I think they should contemplate moving Chabot ahead of Chychrun. That said, Tanev doesn't seem like a fit in Ottawa this season.

From the assets the Sens have, I could see the Flames being high on Pinto and Bernard-Docker.

[Locke]

They're probably going to make the playoffs before we do, but I think we'd get more from a playoff team at the TDL.

And you want Tanev?

You can have him.

He's a great player and I really like everything about him but he's about one stiff breeze away from permanent LTIR.

How come people think dubois is so toxic when chycrun is nearly identical? 🤔

[stemit14]

My interpretation from that Friedman take is they will heavily target him in the offseason. I can’t see them trading for a rental. If they did… definitely would not be for their first round pick… if they were determined to get some gel going with their players this season so they can hit the ground running next year, maybe they would trade their 2nd round pick for tanev - which would be a good deal for the flames I think because the 2nd round pick could end up being a very high 2nd round pick in the 35th to 40th overall range.

I think it was Friedman also saying a couple weeks ago that the Senators management are determined to get veteran leadership into the room to get their young players to learn from guys who “play the right way”. That has made me wonder if Coleman would be a target for them as well. I wonder if Tanev + Coleman + Calgary’s 2nd round pick could return Detroit’s first round pick (which Ottawa has). That would be a really interesting deal. Probably favours the flames a bit too much though considering how old Coleman is and how long he is signed for.
