While I don't necessarily subscribe to the idea that the Blues move him, it seems Tarasenko has taken a similar path to Ovechkin in his career. While he is a pure sniper and one of the best shots in the game, he succumbs to emotion too quickly and hasn't exactly propelled the Blues to greatness. He has shown he can be a complete player followed by bats of what appear to be hopelessness.
Tarasenko is a great talent, and a whole year of Schwartz-Schenn-Tarasenko would prove deadly. But is he untouchable in a trade? I say he isn't untouchable, but it'll take a lot to pry him away. What do you think?
