Tanev (ankle) signed a six-year, $27 million contract with Toronto on Monday.
Tanev will head home to his native Toronto on a deal that almost certainly will be his last considering he is 34 years old. The veteran blueliner split last season between the Flames and Stars, making a combined 75 regular-season appearances in which he garnered two goals, 17 assists and 207 blocked shots. Offensively, Tanev won't offer much to the Maple Leafs or fantasy managers but he should be a mainstay in the lineup, playing around 20 minutes per night.
