Rumor: Vladimir Tarasenko requests a trade

[OilersCoffeeArtBeer]

Buffalo would be a good team to trade with. Trade Tarasenko for Reinhart.

 

[Crazy8oooo]

Personally I would pay a 1st+ for him from the Pens.

But this honestly feels like one of those trades that had an underwhelming return. Like a 2nd rounder and a decent prospect.

Will be interesting to see how it shakes out

I can see him going off in Pit and putting up 40+ goals.

So now blues have to retain just to move him lol. I will defiantly repost this in 10 days lol

If they don’t retain, they will get a sack of potatoes in return

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

He shouldnt cost a lot to acquire considering he has an Nmc, has barely played the last few years, and is signed at 7.5M

Whoever gets him could potentially get a huge steal

 

[Toby Flenderson]

I can see him going off in Pit and putting up 40+ goals.

He and Malkin would be dynamite

Guentzel-Crosby
Malkin-Tarasenko

makes us contenders again I would say

 

[Bye Bye Blueston]

Could an OEL deal work?

No.

I'd love to see him playing with Malkin.

 

[thrillhous]

He’s not a centre but I could see Jarmo K go after him. He did draft Vladdy after all.

 

[Legend123]

i hope mtl looks into him.

I think Pietro felt disrespected that the Blues played hard ball with him, a guy that was underpaid for the duration of his Blues career and their team captain.

The fact that they traded for Faulk and signed him to a 6.5M/yr, 45.5M contract without Faulk having played a single game for them...I know I would feel slighted and underappreciated. Like I just won you this cup and you're not willing to take care of me and my family?

I know this is a contentious point among Blues fans, some look at Pietro as a selfish player, a judas or something, but from an outsider pov, it seems to me like the relationship couldn't be repaired because of that disrespect.

I love Petro, but he is also the same player that held out after his ELC. It's no surprise he left for a better deal.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Monahan for Taresenko makes sense.

 

[Eggtimer]

As a Devils fan he would be nice to have him as Hughes’ winger but we need too many other pieces first . Pens would be one good fit I can think of

 

[Kurrilino]

Lizotte +3rd for Tarasenko

 

[Colt55]

If they don’t retain, they will get a sack of potatoes in return

We shall see.

 

[Colt55]

Voracek for Tarasenko

No thanks

 

[Colt55]

Lizotte +3rd for Tarasenko

Nope

 

[Colt55]

Monahan for Taresenko makes sense.

No it doesn't not at all.

 

[Colt55]

i hope mtl looks into him.

Guhle 1st 2021 mtl 2nd tmp
Tarasenko 2.5 mil retained Dunn.

Thoughts

 

[treple13]

No it doesn't not at all.

Position wise, it doesn't make a lot of sense for either team. St. Louis isn't in need of a C and Calgary can't really afford to give up a C without getting one back

 

[stl76]

Man I would hate to see Vova leave. Here's hoping the relationship between player and team isn't irreparably damaged

 

[Blueswin]

but he was ok with signing faulk and krug with NTC... seems idiotic.

No trade & no movement clauses are not the same thing.

 

[Blueswin]

He makes $9.5 million this upcoming season, that is pretty significant.

And 5.5 mil. the following season.

 

[Jabba11]

Come to Montreal. We definitely need a guy like Tarasenko. To help our top 6.

 

[lightstorm]

No it doesn't not at all.

You are right. Tarasenko is older, more expensive than Monahan and has had his third shoulder surgery (the first two were botched, apparently).

Yeah things we have been saying. So no on Bobby Monihan lol
