RANGERS ACQUIRE TARASENKO FROM BLUES

The New York Rangers acquired forward Vladimir Tarasenko and defenseman Niko Mikkola from the St. Louis Blues on Thursday.

The Rangers added a dynamic winger in Tarasenko who should be a great fit next to their other star forwards.

He’s getting a new opportunity in New York, likely on the third pair, and is an upgrade over both [Ben Harpur](https://theathletic.com/nhl/player/ben-harpur-lbWlKvMsUQ3THqEQ/) and [Libor Hajek](https://theathletic.com/nhl/player/libor-hajek-GQ6yqIrgyBYR2HOm/). Tarasenko for a late first on its face would have been rich but that the Rangers got a second useful player at a more premium position as well that the Blues retained salary in the trade tends to make it equal in terms of what the market at the deadline has historically been. Tarasenko had a great career with the Blues but given he’s having a down year, had some recent injury history and doesn’t play a premium position getting a first-round pick for the pending free agent is a positive for the Blues. While the Rangers were always rumored to add a winger, is it nevertheless interesting to observe an organization that has used three premium draft picks in the last five years on wingers in Kravtsov, Kaapo Kakko and Lafrenière felt it was important to add more talent on the wing.

The Rangers targeted Tarasenko among the top wingers available, given the high asking price and salary cap ramifications of acquiring Meier or Chicago's Patrick Kane, the latter of whom still has not decided if he wants to be traded from Chicago. Any of those teams would be a good fit for 26-year-old San Jose Sharks winger Timo Meier, who's under team control for at least next season at $10 million and could sign a long-term extension.

He’s also an unrestricted free agent at the end of the year.

NHL.com has the fantasy hockey impact of the trade that sent valuable right wing Vladimir Tarasenko to the New York Rangers from the St. Louis Blues.

Center Filip Chytil has had a breakout season with 19 goals, including 11 in 14 games (fourth in NHL) since Jan. With two elite lines, the reigning Vezina Trophy winner in goalie Igor Shesterkin and one of the strongest third units in the NHL, the Rangers have more Stanley Cup futures appeal considering Tarasenko won the championship with the Blues in 2019 and New York reached the Eastern Conference Final last postseason.

But personally, for me, I'm excited to get back with the team [and] I'm excited to make our final push here."

Blais, who was traded to New York in 2021, Louis Blues traded Vladimir Tarasenko to the New York Rangers on Thursday, it closed yet another chapter from their Stanley Cup championship book. "Yeah, it's interesting to see, but all in all, that [Cup win] was quite a few years ago," said Blues captain Ryan O'Reilly, a pending unrestricted free agent who broke his foot Dec. The 31-year-old forward played an integral role when the Blues won their first championship in 2019 by defeating the Boston Bruins in seven games.

Tarasenko's trade from the Blues to the Rangers on Thursday could have some interesting domino effects around the NHL.

But management also has to balance the big picture and potential return for a UFA, who was out of the lineup Thursday night with an injury. That doesn’t mean the [Rangers](https://theathletic.com/nhl/team/rangers/) would have been the only team Kane accepted a trade to, but I’m pretty confident in saying they would have been among his two or three preferred teams. They can run that trade market right to the wire if they choose to, because it’s a simpler deal — unless they want to involve a third team to broker a lower AAV for the acquiring team (which is possible). As for the Rangers, though I know Tarasenko has had a down year, I have no doubt of his ability to have a resurgence in that lineup. And I mean, it isn’t a guarantee the Sharks will ever grant that permission, that remains to be seen. The bottom line is that when you’re a selling team like the Blues, with two major players like Tarasenko and O’Reilly (among others), you don’t want to cluster them near the end. And it would make sense that it doesn’t wait until the final day, given the possibility of an extension being worked out with the 26-year-old star winger, who has the complication of a $10 million qualifying offer to retain his RFA rights. New Jersey and Carolina, as we previously reported, are keenly interested, but the reality is that several teams have expressed interest. Louis did well in getting a first-round pick as part of the package, albeit a low first-rounder (it will be the lower of the two picks the Rangers own, between their own and the The other smart thing the Blues did here is getting a Tarasenko trade done as soon as possible.

The New York Rangers made a big splash in the trade market Thursday, adding scorer Vladimir Tarasenko and depth defenceman Niko Mikkola.

He was averaging 17 minutes of ice time in St Louis, with all of his minutes coming at even strength and the penalty kill. Skinner has size (6-foot-2, 185 pounds) but has had a difficult time gaining any sort of traction in his career to date. The extra first-round pick in the – very deep – 2023 draft is significant. He’s on an expiring contract and will be auditioning for a new deal down the stretch. He’s a sneaky add for the Rangers in this deal. At that point, Panarin was an 18-point scorer (in 43 games) in the KHL as a 22-year-old and still three years away from signing an NHL contract. Tarasenko, like the rest of the Blues, doesn't have the same numbers as last season (10 goals in 38 games), but if you surround him with a better fit, there's no reason to believe the 31-year-old can't still score at a 35- to 40-goal pace. Special teams are always important at playoff time and Tarasenko adds another dangerous element to one of the Rangers' power-play units. It seems likely the Rangers will now try Tarasenko on the right side of Panarin's line, with the team's leading goal scorer, Mika Zibanejad, down the middle. [Vladimir Tarasenko](/hockey/nhl/players/vladimir-tarasenko/550766) was one of the NHL's top goal scorers.
