Description
Sick of this dragging out and not convinced the return is going to get any better. Also don't think they should keep Vlad to play his way into better value; you never want guys in the room that don't want to be there. I wish it didn't go down like this, because the forward group with a motivated Tarasenko is actually pretty filthy. But I think that ship has sailed.

Interesting proposal but the goal number would have to be higher. Something like 30 IMO.

just curious why Tarasenko is unhappy and wants out?
Is it similar situation to Eichel and his injury status and handling by the team, or another reason?

My logic was that a 20-goal guy making 4m vs the cap would easily get a 1st rd pick for a 2-yr rental. Impossible to really say what the Blues are going to get, this whole situation is a mess.

I guess it depends on which stories and reports you choose to believe. It's been reported that the Blues doctors messed up his shoulder surgery 2x and the 3rd one (done by the Steadman Clinic) identified unrepaired tendons. So there is the story being put out there that he is unhappy with the team and the way they handled his surgeries and recovery. There were also reports that Vlad was unhappy with ROR getting the captaincy (despite it being an absolute no-brainer) and those feelings are probably a pretty strong driver to find a fresh start.

I'll be honest, I didn't think ROR was a no Brainerd, but also didn't think it should have gone to Tarasenko. Based on how he handles young kids in the locker room as well handles squabbles on the ice, I would say Schenn was just as viable as a captain. Very Foligno-esque
