VLADIMIR TARASENKO NEWS

Assists in three straight games Tarasenko provided an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Kings.

Impact Tarasenko has a helper in three straight games after helping out on a Dylan Larkin goal late in Saturday's loss. The 32-year-old Tarasenko has struggled with consistency so far, so it's tough to tell if this is a mirage or a return to form on offense. The veteran winger has six points, 25 shots on net, nine hits and a minus-4 rating over 16 appearances, playing primarily in a third-line role.

Garners helper Tarasenko posted a power-play assist, two hits, two PIM and a minus-3 rating in Friday's 6-4 loss to the Ducks.

Impact Tarasenko has a helper in each of the last two contests to bounce back from a seven-game slump. The winger's assist Friday was his first power-play point of the year, which makes sense in the context of his relatively limited usage overall. He's now at five points, 23 shots on net and a minus-3 rating through 15 appearances.

Provides assist Wednesday Tarasenko registered an assist and four shots on goal in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Penguins.

Impact Tarasenko set up Jonathan Berggren's tally in the second period. The helper snapped a seven-game slump for Tarasenko, who continues to see a limited role on the third line and second power-play unit. The winger has just four points with 23 shots on net, six hits, seven blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 14 appearances this season, so it doesn't look like he'll be much of a fantasy force.

Ready to rock Tarasenko (illness) is at morning practice and is slated to return to the lineup versus Buffalo on Saturday, Sam Stockton of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Tarasenko missed Wednesday's game versus Winnipeg as he was suffering from the flu. The 32-year-old has a pair of goals and one assist in nine games this season. Tarasenko is expected to play on the third line, alongside Jonatan Berggren and Marco Kasper, as well as seeing time on the second power-play unit.

Not expected to play Wednesday Tarasenko (illness) is listed as a scratch for Wednesday's game versus the Jets, per the NHL media site.

Impact Tarasenko is dealing with the flu, and it appears he'll miss at least one game. The 32-year-old winger's next chance to play is Saturday versus the Sabres.

Dealing with illness Tarasenko picked up the flu bug and will be a game-time decision against Winnipeg on Wednesday, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports.

Impact Tarasenko wasn't on the ice for Wednesday's game-day skate and will need to recover quickly in order to suit up versus the Jets. If the 32-year-old winger does miss out, the Wings are likely to deploy seven defensemen, probably Erik Gustafsson, rather than recalling a forward from AHL Grand Rapids.

Sets up lone goal in win Tarasenko registered an assist in Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Islanders.

Impact Tarasenko has a point in each of the last two games. The winger is up to two goals, one assist, 13 shots on net, four hits and a plus-3 rating. He saw just 12:19 of ice time Tuesday and continues to be relatively limited despite being listed in a top-six role. His power-play role will likely keep him somewhat productive, but Tarasenko is more of a supporting player in the Red Wings' offense.

Lights lamp Saturday Tarasenko scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Predators.

Impact Tarasenko snapped a three-game slump with his first-period marker. The 32-year-old winger was listed on the top line Saturday, but he still logged a modest 13:34 of ice time. He's produced two goals, 13 shots on net, four hits and a plus-2 rating through five contests this season. Its too early to rule out a strong season for Tarasenko, but this lukewarm start is raising concerns that he may no longer be a reliable source of offense.

Good to go Thursday Tarasenko (illness) will play in Thursday's matchup with the Rangers, Ted Kulfan of The Detroit News reports.

Impact Tarasenko has managed just one goal through the first three games despite putting eight shots on net and averaging 2:01 of ice time with the man advantage. Last season, the 32-year-old winger racked up 55 points in 76 regular-season games for the Senators and Panthers and should be capable of producing at similar levels in 2024-25.

Misses Wednesday's practice Tarasenko didn't practice Wednesday because he's dealing with an illness, according to Carley Johnston of the Red Wings' official site.

Impact Tarasenko has a goal in three contests with the Red Wings this season. If he can't play Thursday versus the Rangers, then Detroit will need to recall a forward from the minors or dress seven defensemen.

Scores in defeat Tarasenko scored a goal on four shots in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Penguins.

Impact Tarasenko was able to score in his Detroit debut, burying his first goal of the year at 12:32 of the second period. The 32-year-old winger is on his fifth team in three years after signing a two-year deal with the Red Wings as a free agent. He had 55 points over 76 regular-season games between the Senators and the Panthers last season, so there's still some offense in his game. Tarasenko is in a second-line role to begin 2024-25.

Growing accustomed to new club Tarasenko scored his second goal of the preseason in Friday's 4-3 overtime win against Ottawa.

Impact Tarasenko snapped one past Anton Forsberg from the top of the left circle to open the scoring for Detroit in Friday's loss. Tarasenko could challenge for 30 goals in 2024-25 playing on a line with Patrick Kane, something the former hasn't done since the 2021-22 campaign. Tarasenko has been fairly durable over the last three years as well -- he's appeared in at least 69 contests per season during that span. The two-time Stanley Cup Champion is penciled into a top-six role, and he'll receive time with one of Detroit's power-play units.

Red Wings sign two-time Stanley Cup champion Vladimir Tarasenko away from the Panthers

The raiding of the Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers continued with the Detroit Red Wings signing winger Vladimir Tarasenko to a two-year contract worth $9.5 million

JULY 3 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Heading to Motor City Tarasenko signed a one-year, $4.75 million contract with the Red Wings on Wednesday.

Impact Tarasenko had 23 goals and 55 points across 76 regular-season contests between Ottawa and Florida in 2023-24. He also supplied five goals and nine points in 24 playoff games to aid the Panthers in their Cup-winning run. The 32-year-old has surpassed the 60-point milestone on six occasions with the most recent example being 2021-22 when he finished with 34 goals and 82 points in 75 outings with St. Louis. Tarasenko isn't a safe bet to reach the 60-point mark at this stage of his career, but it also can't be ruled out. At worst, he should be a solid middle-six option for Detroit as long as he stays healthy.

Scores lone goal in loss Tarasenko scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Saturday's 8-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 4.

Impact Tarasenko's goal in the first period pulled the Panthers within one, but they were unable to build on it as the Oilers ran away with the game. The winger has three goals and an assist over his last five contests, a rare run of consistency for him this postseason. Overall, he's at nine points, 40 shots, 41 hits and a plus-5 rating through 21 playoff outings.
