FEBRUARY 9, 2023 • HOCKEYBUZZ.COM
Vladimir Tarasenko - Traded to New York Tarasenko was sent to the Rangers from the Blues on Thursday, along with Niko Mikkola, in exchange for Sammy Blais, Hunter Skinner, a 2023 conditional first-round pick and 2024 con...
Impact Tarasenko has scored just 10 goals in 38 games this season and could miss the 30-goal threshold for the third time in four seasons, though his previous misses were due to injuries. The winger figures to link up with fellow Russian Artemi Panarin, along with Mike Zibanejad, on the Rangers' top line and should be a factor with the No. 1 power-play unit as well.

Libor Hajek - Placed on waivers Hajek was waived by the Rangers on Thursday, per TSN's Chris Johnston.
Impact Hajek last drew into the lineup for New York on Dec. 12. He has a goal in 16 games this season while averaging 13:16 of ice time. If Hajek clears waivers, the 25-year-old will likely be reassigned to AHL Hartford so he can get some work in.

Niko Mikkola - Included in mega-deal Thursday Mikkola, along with Vladimir Tarasenko, was traded to the Rangers on Thursday from the Blues with Sammy Blais, Hunter Skinner and conditional picks in 2023 and 2024 going the other...
Impact Considering Mikkola has just four goals in 139 games for the Blues over his four-year NHL career, the Rangers certainly aren't bringing him in to produce offensively. Still, the 26-year-old defenseman should immediately jump into a top-4 pairing, especially after Libor Hajek was placed on waivers to clear a spot on the blue line. While fantasy players are unlikely to be directly impacted by this move, it could mean reduced save totals for the Rangers' netminders with Mikkola averaging 1.36 blocks per game this season.
