Kraken lose forward Tanev for the rest of the season

This just in, the Seattle Kraken have announced that 29 year old forward Brandon Tanev will miss the rest of this season due to a knee injury that he sustained earlier this month in a game against the Edmonton Oilers.

Here's the hit that took Tanev out of action:

Tanev put up an impressive nine goals and 15 points in 30 games this season with the Kraken and established himself as a fan favorite in Seattle, the same way he did during his time with the Pittsburgh Penguins and Winnipeg Jets. I mean... how can you not love this guy? He clearly doesn't take himself too seriously and he puts in 100% effort each and every shift.

Just look at this guy and tell me you wouldn't love to have him on your team:

Here's hoping that Tanev comes back next season like his usual self. Whenever you hear about a 29 year old having knee surgery, you never know how it will affect his career moving forward.
