Detroit Red Wings Banking on Tarasenko’s Winning Ways to End Playoff Drought
The Detroit Red Wings, with an eight-year playoff drought after a 25-year playoff streak, aim to boost their fortunes by signing former St. Louis Blues star Vladimir Tarasenko to a two-year, $4.75 million per year deal. Tarasenko, 32, had a solid season, displaying offensive prowess with a high 5v5 GF% of 55.26% in Ottawa and later contributing to the Florida Panthers' Stanley Cup win. Despite a less impressive playoff performance in 2024 compared to his 2019 Cup win, he showed versatility and a willingness to do essential team support work.
