The Russian winger has 662 points (304 goals, 358 assists) in 831 career games with the St. Louis Blues (2012-23), New York Rangers (2023), Ottawa Senators (2023-24), Florida Panthers (2024) and Red Wings. The Blues drafted him 16th overall in 2010.
Tarasenko won Stanley Cups with the Blues in 2018 and the Panthers in 2024. He has 73 points (49 goals, 24 assists) in 121 career postseason games.
