First the Blues sale is reported to be finalized, then Brett Hull rejoins the organization and now Tarasenko is coming over?

:cup:

When does next season start?

With Semin and Ovechkin being added to the Russian team, Tarasenko has no chance of playing now. There is talk about him making his decision soon.

I was extremely disappointed to see that he's not putting in the work he needs to stay in shape.

Will Tarasenko be the Russian 25? It would certainly be just this teams luck anyway.

Actually, JR reported that he has actually been putting in tons of work....he's bulked up and gotten larger. They don't like that over there, they felt he cared more about preparing for the NHL then the National team.

Here's an exert from today's story..
Multiple sources, however, said that Tarasenko is in shape, and they speculated that he might have been "bulking up" for his indoctrination into the NHL, and that's what upset the national team. Another source indicated that Tarasenko's unwillingness to commit to playing in Russia next season is the reason behind him sitting out the world championships.

okay then the first article/interview was misleading. If he was getting in shape for the NHL and that pissed off the KHL then I'd say his coming over to America next season would be an E5

So if Vlady does decide to come over, but doesn't notch 50 goals and/or 80 assists by November, will you all consider him a bust? :mrgreen:
