Tanguay for Kovalev

[Marvin]

First of all I think that this trade is purely fiction, made up by idle minds. Secondly, there's no way Calgary accepts a Kovalev for Tanguay trade. Montreal has to sweeten the deal considerably.

I'm not 100% sold on Tanguay. He's put up good numbers, but always on a line with elite offensive talents (Sakic, Forsberg, Iginla). On our team he could easily turn into a 40-50 point player.

That said, we desperately need more finish on this team. Last night we demonstrated that we can control the play and buzz around in the offensive zone - but that doesn't matter on the score sheet.

Wasn't Tanguay on a line with Hejduk? And isn't Tanguay on Calgary's second line, and Huselius on the first line?

I can't say that I've followed him closely enough to know - although over the years he's had the benefit of playing with some pretty elite talents. I'll bet that Iginla was in on at least half of goals where Tanguay registered a point last year.

Or was Tanguay in on half the goals where Iginla registered a point. Iginla had 94 points (39 goals), Tanguay had 81 points (22 goals) .... and here I thought Tanguay was the set-up man and Iginla the trigger man.

EDIT: I do believe they played on the same line last year. Not sure if they do this year - But Tanguay is still producing. I thought he was on Langkow's line (could be wrong).
