Very different scenario than parachuting into a new team after the trade deadline. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he can be a reliable high-20s/low-30s guy and be reliable all over the ice. His play away from the puck impressed me almost as much as his shot did. I really liked having him around. In an ideal world, I’d love to keep him but we knew he, more so than even Kane, was a rental. Edited July 4, 2023 by RichieNextel305 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 14 hours ago, Pete said: That deal is dead, I believe. The deal only works with retention, but retention violates some clause in the CBA. Thought I saw they were just waiting till the 7th or 8th, to make it a year since Philly acquired him. So to appease the league. Carolina is sure making a lot of moves. So maybe it is off the table now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sod16 Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 We'll love that Tarasenko signed with Carolina... when they are playing the Devils in the playoffs to get out of the Metro bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll probably crush it in Carolina given their structure and the way they are able to attack in waves with zero fear of "overshooting." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 It's really too bad there was really no way he was going to stay. I thought he was a really good fit and just the kind of player they needed, instead of that other guy they got too. (Sorry, Patrick) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Even if they didn't get the other guy, he was never staying. They could never afford him under any circumstances (barring major roster reconstruction). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 I'll take a larger role for Kakko + Wheeler for nothing over what it would have taken us to pay Tarasenko for the downward trend of his career + the assets they'd have to have moved out to afford him (Miller). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 100%. He served his purpose. It should have lasted longer, but he was a pure rental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzy Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Just wanna see him land a good deal with a decent team. I always liked Tank, and I really wish we didn't fuck up that whole draft by taking McIlrath. Fucking guy should've been ours for the duration of his entire career, but we HAD to reach for stupidity. I kinda knew we had zero chance of keeping him, even though I would've loved to! Too much rearrangement needed to do so, so I just wish the guy the best and hope he doesn't score too many against us! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s risky for him to take a 1 year deal, but it’s also a good idea. Consider. He takes a 1 year, low money deal with a very good team this year. Gets big minutes with good players and puts up good numbers, then signs for a big bag and longer-term next summer. But he could get hurt. With his age and the shoulder, it’s a chance. Kind of a tough spot for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrooksBurner Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 If the Rangers are in win now mode, just trade Goodrow and float Tarasenko a 1 yr $3M deal. If he really wants to be here, he can take a small cut, pile up some points, and get paid next summer. He's clearly not getting any mind-blowing offers this summer. After the decent bottom 6 grunts they've signed, the Rangers don't really need Goodrow. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was initially thinking the same thing, except more like $1M base and $4M in bonuses. I felt like there must be rules that prohibit that in most cases or we'd see it all the time. Turns out performance bonuses are, in fact, limited to certain criteria: https://www.capfriendly.com/faq#performance_bonus Tarasenko doesn't qualify.
