Top Christopher Tanev News

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Off injured reserve

    Tanev (upper body) was activated off injured reserve, which suggests he'll be available for Thursday's game against Florida.

    Tanev hasn't been in the lineup since Feb. 25 due to the injury. He has two goals, 17 points and 151 blocks in 57 appearances in 2024-25. Tanev's return will likely result in Philippe Myers being a healthy scratch.

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Game-time call versus Cats

    Tanev (upper body) will be a game-time decision against Florida on Thursday, Joshua Kloke of The Athletic reports.

    Tanev looks set to return from a six-game absence due to his upper-body injury. If the veteran blueliner is back in the lineup, it will likely mean Philippe Myers is relegated to a spot in the press box as a healthy scratch. On the year, the 35-year-old Tanev is averaging 19:48 of ice time, but those minutes could drop after the Maple Leafs brought in Brandon Carlo at the trade deadline.

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Unlikely to play Saturday

    Head coach Craig Berube said Friday that Tanev (upper body) is "doubtful" for Saturday's game against the Avalanche, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.

    Tanev has missed the last three games due to his upper-body injury, and there was initially hope that he'd be able to return to the lineup Saturday. However, he'll likely require at least one more game on the shelf, while his next opportunity to return will be Monday against Utah.

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Might return Saturday

    Tanev (upper body) won't play Wednesday versus Vegas, but he might be an option Saturday against Colorado, per Luke Fox of Sportsnet.

    Tanev has missed Toronto's past three games due to the injury. He has two goals, 17 points and 151 blocks in 57 appearances in 2024-25. When Tanev is ready to return, Conor Timmins might spend more time as a healthy scratch.

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Placed on IR

    Tanev (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Sunday.

    The move, retroactive to Feb. 25, is largely procedural as it had been previously reported that Tanev would be out until Wednesday against the Golden Knights. Philippe Myers should remain in the lineup in Tanev's absence.

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Expected to miss next two games

    Tanev (upper body) is feeling better, but he's still expected to miss Sunday's clash against Pittsburgh and Monday's game versus San Jose, coach Craig Berube told Mark Masters of TSN on Saturday.

    That would make Wednesday's match in Vegas the earliest potential date for Tanev's return. The 35-year-old defenseman has two goals, 17 points and 151 blocks in 57 appearances in 2024-25. Philippe Myers might play regularly, while Tanev is unavailable.

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Might not be out for long

    Tanev (upper body) isn't expected to play Friday against the Rangers, but he might not be out for long, per David Alter of The Hockey News on Wednesday.

    Head coach Craig Berube described Tanev as day-to-day and regarded that as good news after the 35-year-old defenseman was injured during Tuesday's 5-4 overtime victory over Boston. Tanev has two goals, 17 points and 151 blocks in 57 appearances in 2024-25. Philippe Myers will likely draw back into the lineup due to Tanev's absence.

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Injured Tuesday

    Tanev (upper body) won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Bruins.

    Tanev was injured on his second shift of the game and ultimately couldn't return. He's been critical to the Maple Leafs' defensive structure, so any potential absence looms large for the team, though his defensive style doesn't add much in fantasy. Toronto plays the Rangers on Friday.

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Rare two-point outing

    Tanev scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, logged two PIM and went plus-3 in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    The shutdown pairing of Tanev and Jake McCabe combined for four points and a plus-6 rating in the contest. Tanev appears refreshed following the 4 Nations Face-Off break with three points over his last two outings. The 35-year-old defenseman is up to two goals, 17 points, 30 shots on net, 152 blocked shots and a plus-27 rating through 56 appearances this season. He last reached the 20-point mark in 2021-22 with the Flames during a 28-point career year, and he's on pace to get back there for the fourth time in his career.

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Draws helper on empty-netter

    Tanev logged an assist, three blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Hurricanes.

    Tanev snapped a nine-game point drought when he set up Auston Matthews' empty-netter, the first of two freebies for the Maple Leafs late in the game. The 35-year-old Tanev continues to quietly take care of business on the back end as a shutdown defenseman. He's also done fairly well for himself on offense with 15 points, 28 shots on net, 151 blocked shots and a plus-24 rating across 55 appearances. He can help in fantasy formats that count blocks, but he's little more than a depth defenseman in most situations.

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Contributes assist in win

    Tanev logged an assist, four PIM and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Sabres.

    Tanev has actually been steady on offense with three assists over his last six games.

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Dishes apple in loss

    Tanev produced the primary assist on John Tavares' 12th marker of 2024-25 to tie the game at 1-1 in the middle frame, but that was the last of Toronto's offense in the contest. While Tanev is known for his defensive prowess, he's contributed one goal and three assists in his past six outings. The right-shot blueliner has helped Toronto become a better defensive unit as well -- Tanev is second in the NHL with 78 blocked shots. He's at one goal, six assists, 10 PIM, 14 shots and a plus-8 rating through 26 games this campaign.

  • Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev: Rare two-point effort

    Tanev had a goal and an assist in a 5-3 win over Tampa Bay on Saturday.

    Tanev's last two-point effort came with Calgary on Feb. 27, 2024. His goal in Saturday's win was his first of the season, a wrist shot from the circle that beat Andrei Vasilevskiy to the far post. Tanev has one goal and five assists in 23 games, but he's better known for his ability to block shots. He ranks second in the league with 74 blocks this campaign, making him a value fantasy specialist in deep leagues that count that category.
