Let us remember Tanev is a rental and prone to injuries looks like another overpay to me just like Lindholm was.

I agree with you.
I can't see Vancouver signing Tanev in the off-season, and they're not trading their future first-round picks.

A lot of reports have Tanev signing in Vancouver in the off season. He loved it in Vancouver, played well alongside Hughes who liked playing with him, and Vancouver has rumoured interest given his veteran leadership and strong defensive play.

While I think they’d be reluctant to part with another 1st I think they are confident enough Tanev would sign for a slight discount and value what he would bring for a run this year that they might move a 1st but only if Calgary retains (can’t afford him under cap otherwise). Lottery protected 1st, D prospect and Friedman for Tanev 50% retained would be my ballpark.
