Tanev (ribs) is on the ice Thursday at the first day of practices in training camp, Pat Steinberg of Sportsnet 960 The Fan reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tanev played through multiple injuries at the end of last year, including broken ribs and a torn pectoral muscle. He was paired with Nikita Zadorov at Thursday's practice. Tanev figures to play a highly defensive role in the Flames' top-four -- he'll be worth a look in formats that count blocked shots, but he shouldn't be expected to produce much more than 15 points even in a sizable role.
