NHL Rumor: Red Wings could trade Vladimir Tarasenko as Steve Yzerman eyes aggressive offseason
NHL Rumor: Red Wings could trade Vladimir Tarasenko as Steve Yzerman eyes aggressive offseason (Image Source: Getty Images) The Detroit Red Wings are getting set for what might be a hectic summer. Coming off a ninth consecutive playoff miss, general manager Steve Yzerman seems poised to make significant changes both bringing players onto and possibly away from the roster. One of the names that has been floating around in trade rumors is veteran wing Vladimir Tarasenko. The Red Wings inducted him last summer with high expectations, but his inaugural season in Detroit did not turn out as expected. Washington Capitals would be a perfect landing place for Vladimir Tarasenko Washington Capitals may be interested in acquiring Tarasenko, as per NHL insider Michael DeRosa of NHLTradeRumors. With the Capitals needing scoring depth on the wing, Tarasenko could be a good addition. The Capitals might be a team to look at if Tarasenko is traded this summer," DeRosa said. "He could provide them with another good weapon for their power play and some depth in their top nine. Vladimir Tarasenko, a two-time Stanley Cup winner, had a subdued year by his standards. Nevertheless, the Capitals might be enhanced by his playoff ability and talent, particularly with the addition of Alex Ovechkin. If Detroit does deal with him, they won't probably ask for much. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like [부산 한정] 빠진 치아 1개도 10개도 33만원에 임플란트 해드려요! 플란치과 더 알아보기 Undo The primary objective would be to shed his $4.75 million cap hit and rebuild their forward ranks.

"His game was probably better than the game he produced," said Yzerman. "He was frustrated, and I think that hurt him. But I think he can produce more for us." Yzerman further added that Tarasenko has an opportunity to become a top-six forward next season if he stays in Detroit. The expectation is that increased opportunities for scoring and a new start for the season may be able to get him back on track. The Red Wings are also likely to be busy in free agency. Yzerman firmly stated that he is ready to go after some big names that can help the team go to the next level. While they have a couple of rising stars in Lucas Raymond, Moritz Seider, and others leading the charge, Detroit is now looking for the right veterans to help them end their playoff drought. Whether that involves retaining or shipping out Tarasenko remains to be determined. One thing is certain, however: the Red Wings will not be silent this offseason.

Steve Yzerman hints at parting ways with Vladimir Tarasenko and Erik Gustafsson in major roster shakeup
Getty Images Something's finally cracking in Hockeytown. After nearly a decade without a playoff appearance, the Detroit Red Wings might be done with holding onto names and nostalgia. With GM Steve Yzerman reportedly ready to move on from veterans Vladimir Tarasenko and Erik Gustafsson , the team looks poised to break the cycle of 'almost.' It's not just about clearing cap space, it's about clearing a path. If this offseason delivers on the rumors, Detroit may finally be trading in the past for a shot at a future. Red Wings rumored to cut veterans as Steve Yzerman eyes future-focused rebuild For years, the Red Wings' rebuild has felt stuck in limbo. Big names like Tarasenko were brought in as hopeful band-aids, guys with experience and star power but not necessarily long-term upside. But now, with reports from Detroit Hockey Now hinting at possible buyouts of Tarasenko and Gustafsson, Yzerman's strategy may be shifting for good. No more half-measures, Detroit could finally be ready to prioritize youth, chemistry, and energy over aging firepower. Cutting Vladimir Tarasenko and Erik Gustafsson would open doors not just cap space Tarasenko didn't exactly live up to the hype in Detroit. Eleven goals and 33 points across 80 games is far from what fans hoped for from a Stanley Cup champ. Even Yzerman admitted the numbers were disappointing, though he believed Tarasenko's overall play was 'better than his production.' Still, freeing up his contract along with Gustafsson's would give Detroit more than $20 million to reshape the roster. That's not just money, that's a clean slate. While Gustafsson brought steady defense and mobility, his name in the buyout mix shows that even reliable veterans aren't safe if they don't fit the future vision. Yzerman himself said they 'missed him' when he was out but that might not be enough to justify a spot when younger, faster players are waiting. For Detroit, it may be time to stop plugging holes and start building a new core around emerging talent. Kane's still got it but he's not the franchise player he once was. With Detroit reportedly eyeing big-name reinforcements and Kane's own future uncertain, it's clear the Red Wings see him more as a veteran leader than a long-term solution. The rumors of targeting a Maple Leafs star suggest Yzerman is ready to build around younger, prime-year talent, not just aging stars with rings. If Detroit moves on from Tarasenko and Gustafsson, it's not just about better stats next season. It's a philosophical shift, proof that Yzerman's patience has limits and his focus is firmly on the next generation. After years of dancing on the edge of contention, the Red Wings might finally be making moves that mean something.

Ukrainian MP: Some 80% of state-owned enterprises loss-making
Kiev - Saba: About 80% of state-owned enterprises in Ukraine are loss-making, Ukrainian MP Taras Tarasenko said on Wednesday. For understanding, we have the largest number of state-owned enterprises in Europe, three thousand, but unfortunately, the majority of them, 80%, are loss-making enterprises in bankruptcy or liquidation proceedings, Tarasenko said, according to the Novosti Life TV channel. He added that the public sector has become loss-making due to poor management. Currently, only Ukrpushta and Ukrzalyznytsia are operating effectively. The Pentagon's inspector general reported that corruption cases were recorded during inspections of the fate of US aid to Ukraine. According to the inspector's report, 57 corruption investigations have been opened in Ukraine since February 2022, of which 14 have been completed and 43 are still open. The completed investigations resulted in 7 arrests, 13 criminal charges, 2 convictions, and 11 suspensions. The open investigations mainly concern fraud in grants and procurement, corruption, theft, and other violations. According to a poll conducted by the Ukrainska Pravda newspaper in April, more than half of Ukrainians see corruption as the biggest threat to the country's development. Ukrainian MP Artyom Dmytrok, who left Ukraine and is wanted by the Kyiv authorities, said that Volodymyr Zelensky has stolen more than all other Ukrainian presidents. "Tens of millions of dollars are transferred every month" from every government body to Zelensky's office, Dmytrok was quoted as saying by RT. "This is the man who has stolen more money than all the presidents who have stolen in Ukraine before. And his money, of course, is the bloodiest of all. He has surpassed everyone in this regard," he added. According to the deputy, $10-15 million is collected monthly in the Odessa region alone, and the income from regional recruitment centers in Ukraine ranges from $2-4 billion annually.

Red Wings 3 Biggest Surprises Of The Year
A little rest and relaxation is good for everyone. The Detroit Red Wings (and every other NHL team) are enjoying a break from games right now. Practices began yesterday for the 4 Nations Faceoff, which is taking place in Montreal and Boston. This makes right now a great time to take stock of the season. With that in mind, here are the three biggest surprises for the Red Wings this season. When Vladimir Tarasenko and the Red Wings agreed on a two-year $4.75-million contract in the summer, I don't think people could have predicted how difficult it would be to find a fit for the Russian winger. However, here we are. Tarasenko has 22 points in 53 games with the Red Wings. He is on pace for one of the worst offensive years of his career. If things continue this way, he could see the lowest point total of his career since missing significant time because of major surgery and recovery. On the other end of the spectrum, Marco Kasper has had a great year. In 50 games, he has 20 points. Although his point totals are not far from Tarasenko's, he's earned his way to the top line. With Dylan Larkin and Lucas Raymond, he's been nothing short of dynamite. With seven points in his last 10 games and 13 in his last 15, he's been one of the most productive point producers for the Red Wings under their new head coach. He's also 20 years old. What Will the Trade Deadline Bring for the Red Wings? Report: Red Wings Looking to Deal Tarasenko 4 Red Wings Stats From Shocking Loss To Lightning McLellan Mum on Red Wings Deadline Plans Speaking of new head coach, Todd McLellan is undoubtedly the biggest surprise of the year for the Red Wings. Under Derek Lalonde, the team played 34 games, scored 30 points, and had a 13-17-4 record. However, the team didn't generate enough offense, averaging only 25 shots and 2.56 goals per game. As a result, the team ranked second last in the Eastern Conference and 27th overall in the league. Since Christmas, McLellan has flipped the script. The @DetroitRedWings under Todd McLellan:-14-4-1 record-Have gone on TWO six-game winning streaks-Are now in the first Wild Card spot in the East — NHL (@NHL) February 3, 2025 McLellan took over the team on Boxing Day. Since then, the Red Wings are 15-5-1, which is good for 31 points. Only the Washington Capitals and Dallas Stars have more points than them over the same time span. Since the coaching change, they have averaged 29.7 shots and 3.33 goals, almost five shots and one more goal per game. While there are 27 games left to be played for the Red Wings, it's easy to see that Tarasenko, Kasper, and McLellan have been the biggest surprises of the year.

Report: Red Wings Looking to Deal Tarasenko
Last summer, the Detroit Red Wings signed Vladimir Tarasenko to a two-year contract carrying a $4.75 million AAV. From the moment it was signed, there was a bit of a sense that neither party's first choice had been this union. Tarasenko had reportedly desired to remain a Florida Panther, with whom he captured the Stanley Cup as a trade deadline acquisition, but couldn't agree to terms on a new deal. Meanwhile, the Red Wings were linked to names like Steven Stamkos and Jacob Trouba, but those swings did not come to fruition. Instead, Tarasenko and Detroit found a mutual fit. However, 53 games into Tarasenko's tenure as a Red Wing, it's difficult to classify his fit and performance as anything other than underwhelming. He has seven goals and 15 assists. I don't think anybody expect Tarasenko to bring his 30-goal, much less 40-goal, form to Detroit, but pacing for 11 goals on the season is an unequivocal disappointment. Now, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman is reporting that the Red Wings may be looking to move the Russian winger ahead of the trade deadline next month. On the "Saturday Headlines" segment with Ron McLean, Friedman said: "So this one is a little bit of a surprise. Vladimir Tarasenko is in the first year of two in Detroit, and he's got a no trade clause this year, but I've heard there's been some noise around him. The Red Wings have gotten much better. They're in the race. A lot of their players have started to play better, but it's kind of struggled to be a fit. He scored today...I just heard, Ron, that in his particular case, there's been some conversation around him and we'll see how it all develops." On the one hand, the reasons why Detroit might be ready to move on from Tarasenko, and for similar reasons, Tarasenko himself may very well be after a fresh start (and therefore willing to waive his no trade clause). What is harder to conceive of is why a team would look at Tarasenko and wish to bring him in, not just for the forthcoming playoff push but for another season after at that $4.75 million AAV. Perhaps a team may believe it could put Tarasenko in better positions to succeed and he was a valuable piece for Florida during last spring's Cup run. Nonetheless, it's hard to see what team would be If Detroit does deal Tarasenko, it would be interesting to see whether the Red Wings then sought to add a veteran winger as a replacement or simply offered a longer runway to some of their Grand Rapids Griffins call-ups. At the end of the day, I would be surprised if Detroit can find a trade destination for Tarasenko at the deadline (though that's not to say it's impossible). However, he does look like an enticing candidate for a buy out come the summer. The Red Wings could buy out the second year of Tarasenko's deal at the cost of just $1,583,333 against the cap each of the following two seasons (i.e. a $3,166,667 for next season). Assuming he isn't dealt, that appears a reasonably likely outcome, considering Friedman is already reporting the Red Wings are looking for an off-ramp.
