Tarasenko’s new contract with the Senators carries a $5 million cap hit.
The Blues originally selected Tarasenko in the first round of the 2010 NHL Draft. The Yaroslavl, Russia product spent parts of his first three post-draft seasons in the KHL before joining the Blues in time for the lockout-shortened 2012–13 season.
Tarasenko quickly emerged as a star forward in St. Louis, surpassing 30 goals in five consecutive seasons between 2014–15 and 2018–19. He racked up 11 goals and 17 points in 26 playoff games with the Blues in 2019 as they captured their first Stanley Cup. After two injury-plagued seasons, Tarasenko set new career highs with 48 assists and 82 points with the Blues in 2021–22. On February 9, 2023, the Blues traded Tarasenko to the Rangers alongside defenseman Niko Mikkola in exchange for forward Sammy Blais, defenseman Hunter Skinner, and a 2023 first-round pick .
Through 675 career games over parts of 11 NHL seasons with the Blues and Rangers, Tarasenko has collected 270 goals and 574 points. He’s added 44 goals and 64 points in 97 career Stanley Cup Playoff contests. Tarasenko now joins a Senators team that swapped out Alex DeBrincat for Dominik Kubalik and a collection of additional pieces earlier this summer. Ottawa finished sixth in the Atlantic Division with a 39–35–8 record in the 2022–23 season.
