Veteran winger Brandon Tanev will finish the season with the Winnipeg Jets after being acquired from the Seattle Kraken for a second-round draft pick. It's a special move for Tanev, who started his NHL career with the Jets in 2016. The gritty forward initially left Winnipeg in 2019 to join the Pittsburgh Penguins, and he landed in Seattle as a 2021 NHL Expansion Draft selection. This season with the Kraken, Tanev recorded 17 points (nine goals, eight assists), 85 shots, 91 blocks, and 122 hits in 60 games. Fantasy managers can expect to see similar production from him in Winnipeg as he is poised to remain a bottom-six player.
Seattle Kraken winger Brandon Tanev (roster management) will not be in the lineup on Thursday against the Nashville Predators. The 33-year-old is a trade piece for the Kraken and might be moved before Friday's trade deadline. Tanev should attract considerable interest as a hard-working grinder who can also contribute offensively. He has recorded nine goals and 17 points in 60 games this season. Seattle has just traded Yanni Gourde and Oliver Bjorkstrand to the Tampa Bay Lightning, meaning the attacking group will look very different against the Predators. Jordan Eberle appears set to return to the top six, while newly acquired Michael Eyssimont is expected to make his debut as a fourth-liner.
Seattle Kraken winger Brandon Tanev (illness) is a game-time decision for Saturday's contest against Los Angeles. Tanev missed Thursday's clash with Winnipeg due to an illness and may have to sit out another game on Saturday. Tanev has notched 15 points (eight goals, seven assists) in 44 games this season while delivering 96 hits. Tye Kartye played instead of Tanev on Thursday. Kartye is second on the team with 127 hits but offers much less offense than Tanev. The 23-year-old has posted three goals and three assists in 42 games.
Seattle Kraken winger Brandon Tanev (lower body) won't play Tuesday versus Chicago. The gritty forward sustained a lower-body injury in the previous game against Vancouver and is considered day-to-day. Tanev has missed a lot of action due to health issues this season, skating in only eight games. He's posted two goals with 12 shots on goal and 16 hits. Andrew Poturalski will come into the Kraken lineup as Tanev's replacement on Tuesday.
Seattle Kraken left wing Brandon Tanev (lower body) is set to rejoin the lineup Monday versus Colorado. The 31-year-old hasn't played since getting hurt in the team's season opener, but he has been activated from Injured Reserve ahead of Monday's contest, which strongly indicates that Tanev will jump back into action. He is expected to skate with Jared McCann and Alexander Wennberg on the second line.
Seattle Kraken left wing Brandon Tanev (lower body) is set to miss approximately a month of action, having been ruled out for 4-6 weeks. The gritty forward was injured in the team's season opener last week and has already been sidelined for two games. In Tanev, Seattle has lost a player who can make an impact all over the ice. Rookie Tye Kartye has been drafted into the lineup in his absence. He's been limited to an average of 8:12 of ice time on the fourth line and hasn't yet tallied any points, but the 22-year-old has been eager to make a mark, registering six shots on goal across two games.
Seattle Kraken left wing Brandon Tanev (upper body) has been ruled out for Thursday's matchup versus Nashville. The 31-year-old was injured on a high hit from Vegas forward Brett Howden Tuesday and needs more time to recover. Last season, Tanev managed to play in all 82 regular-season games, scoring a career-high 35 points (16 goals, 19 assists). Tanev's injury will allow Tye Kartye to make his regular-season debut Thursday. The 22-year-old played in 10 playoff contests with the Kraken last season, notching three goals and two assists. He spent the majority of 2022-23 with the Coachella Valley Firebirds in the AHL, posting 57 points (28 goals, 29 assists) in 72 appearances.
Brandon Tanev Produces A Big Performance Against Dallas
Seattle Kraken winger Brandon Tanev enjoyed his first three-point outing of the season on Tuesday, notching two goals and an assist in a 5-4 overtime win against Dallas. He made a quick start with two first-period points and also popped up with a goal six minutes from the end of regulation. The performance doubled Tanev's points tally for the month, and the three-point outburst helped Tanev to set his new scoring record. He now sits on 32 points through 70 games, having recorded 15 goals and 17 assists. Tanev can't be relied on for consistent scoring, but he's a good fantasy asset for his all-around ability, as the 31-year-old has added 166 hits and 62 blocks to his scoring numbers.
Brandon Tanev Tallies Two Points In Tuesday's Victory
Seattle Kraken winger Brandon Tanev made good use of only 13:50 of ice time Tuesday against St. Louis, notching two points, two shots, three blocks and two hits with a plus-two rating in a 5-2 win. He set up Daniel Sprong for the game-winning goal in the second period and scored himself with the net empty in the final minutes. Tanev rarely stands out offensively, but he does pop up with good contributions every once in a while and Tuesday was an example of that. The 30-year-old now boasts 15 points for the campaign with 48 shots, 80 hits, 32 blocks and a plus-13 rating in 31 games.
Seattle Kraken winger Brandon Tanev (lower body) has been added to Injured Reserve and could end up being out for a while. The 29-year-old was injured last Saturday against Edmonton, and the seriousness of his ailment remains unknown. Tanev has been in cracking form for the Kraken this season, recording 15 points across 30 outings with 51 shots and 98 hits. He's been huge for the team and will certainly be sorely missed. Fantasy managers will also likely find it difficult to find a suitable replacement who can produce the goods at both ends of the ice.
Brandon Tanev Strikes Late To Win Game For Seattle Tuesday
Seattle Kraken left-winger Brandon Tanev is enjoying his time in the Pacific Northwest. He scored his ninth goal of the young season on Tuesday in the Kraken's 3-1 road win in San Jose. Tanev did a little of everything with two shots, three hits, and two blocked shots. Of course there was the goal which was Seattle's second of the third period. Morgan Geekie set up Tanev with a nice backhand feed. All the winger had to do was fire it past James Reimer which he did. Tanev has 15 points in 28 games for Seattle while being a nice source of offense in a middle-six role.
Brandon Tanev Registers Three Points Against Buffalo
Seattle Kraken winger Brandon Tanev maneuvered his way to three points in Monday's matchup against the Sabres, scoring a short-handed goal and delivering two assists in a 7-4 win. He was an outstanding plus-four for the night, adding two shots and four hits to his tally in 17:53 of ice time. Tanev has cooled down offensively in recent weeks, but he's still having a wonderful campaign, and maybe this will get the points flowing for him again. He sits on eight goals and 13 points in 22 games with 39 shots and 75 hits.
Former Pittsburgh Penguins forward Brandon Tanev scored his third goal of the season for the Seattle Kraken on Saturday night during the club's 2-1 overtime loss. Expected to serve as more of a physical role, the high-energy player has sparked the offense early on this season after scoring just seven goals last season. He scored a career-high 14 goals during the 2018-19 season but has never surpassed the 29-point mark in his six-year career. Tanev has been a fun story so far for the expansion club but he's seeing third-line minutes and isn't penciled in on either of the club's power-play units so his value will likely be limited moving forward although he's a must-have in leagues that reward hits.
Pittsburgh Penguins winger Brandon Tanev (upper body) was added to Injured Reserve on Tuesday and he's considered week-to-week. The 29-year-old grinder had just returned from a lengthy spell on the sidelines last week before getting injured again in Saturday's 7-5 loss to Boston. Tanev has been a good depth piece for Pittsburgh, providing seven goals and 16 points in 32 games. Sam Lafferty will replace him on the third line for Tuesday's game against the Rangers. The Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania native has notched five points in very limited action in 2020-21.
Pittsburgh Penguins winger Brandon Tanev (upper body) has been activated from Injured Reserve, and he's is set to make his first appearance since Mar. 18 in Thursday's road game against Boston. He will join Zach Aston-Reese and Frederick Gaudreau on the third line. Tanev is a hit machine who's having a career year offensively with a 0.5 points per game average. The 29-year-old will look to pick up where he left off as he was on an eight-game stretch of averaging a point per game before getting hurt.
Pittsburgh Penguins forward Brandon Tanev will be sidelined with an upper-body injury as his team takes on the visiting Buffalo Sabres on Wednesday. The 29-year-old is set to miss his third consecutive game due to the ailment and the Penguins placed him on injured reserve retroactive to March 18th on Wednesday afternoon. Tanev has evolved into a valuable asset in fantasy leagues that reward physicality as he's posted 15 points (seven goals, eight assists), a plus 11-rating, 22 penalty minutes and 133 hits through 30 contests. The Toronto native will next get a chance to get back into the lineup in the second night of a back-to-back versus the Sabres on Thursday.
