Done for season Tanev underwent core muscle surgery Wednesday and will miss the remainder of the 2025-26 campaign.
Impact Tanev is projected to be ready for training camp in September. He's signed to a six-year, $27 million contract that runs through 2029-30 and comes with a no-movement clause, so it's fair to believe he'll still be a member of the Leafs for the 2026-27 season. The 36-year-old defenseman will complete 2025-26 with two assists, eight shots, two hits and 15 blocks in 11 appearances.

Lands on LTIR Tanev (groin) was placed on long-term injured reserve Wednesday, per PuckPedia.
Impact Tanev remains out indefinitely. He has already missed the requisite time for LTIR, so he can be activated whenever he's ready, but that is not imminent.

JANUARY 1 • DEADSPIN.COM
Out indefinitely Tanev (groin) is expected to miss a significant amount of time, according to Jonas Siegel of The Athletic on Wednesday.
Impact Tanev sat out Tuesday's 4-0 win over New Jersey, and an exact timeline for his return is unclear. He has provided two assists, eight shots on goal, 15 blocked shots and two hits while being limited to only 11 appearances this season. With Tanev unavailable, Simon Benoit could play regularly again after being a healthy scratch for three straight games before his return to the lineup against the Devils on Tuesday.

Moves to IR Tanev (lower body) was put on injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site.
Impact Tanev will miss at least the next three games after landing on the IR list, beginning with Tuesday's matchup against New Jersey. However, it's unclear when he will be ready to return. While being limited to 11 appearances this season, he has contributed two assists, eight shots on goal, 15 blocked shots and two hits.
DECEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Not playing Tuesday Tanev (lower body) isn't available for Tuesday's home matchup versus New Jersey.
Impact Tanev returned to the lineup Dec. 23 following a long layoff, and he'll now miss at least one more game. Simon Benoit will reenter the lineup Tuesday as a result of Tanev's absence. Toronto's next game is at home Thursday versus Winnipeg.

Playing against Pens Tanev (upper body) will be in the lineup versus Pittsburgh on Tuesday, Chris Johnston of The Athletic reports.
Impact With Tanev back in action, Philippe Myers will likely be relegated to a spot in the press box as a healthy scratch while Henry Thrun figures to head back to the minors. Prior to getting hurt, Tanev had recorded two assists, six shots and eight blocks in eight outings. Given his offensive limitations and lack of hits, Tanev is unlikely to offer more than mid-range fantasy value at best.

Sporting regular sweater Tanev (upper body) practiced in a regular jersey Monday, Claire Hanna of TSN reports, indicating he's been cleared for contact.
Impact Tanev may be hard-pressed to immediately return to the lineup versus the Blackhawks on Tuesday, but he certainly seems to be trending in the right direction. In his eight outings this year, the veteran blueliner has notched two assists, eight blocks and six shots. While the Toronto native generates plenty of blocks, he doesn't offer enough physicality or offensive upside to be more than a low-end fantasy target.
DECEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Getting second opinion Tanev will seek a second opinion for his upper-body issue, Lance Hornby of The Toronto Sun reports Friday.
Impact The news doesn't provide much clarity regarding Tanev's eventual return to action, but fantasy players should probably expect the blueliner to miss at least another week, if not longer. The Leafs should be getting some reinforcements on the blue line in the form of Marshall Rifai (wrist). Still, Tanev's continued absence doesn't bode well for the team's ability to limit opportunities in front of the netminders.
