VLADIMIR TARASENKO RUMORS
Fewer European players are coming to the NHL
A recent article from IIHF.com reports that the 2011-12 NHL season saw the fewest number of European participants in nearly a decade. The article states that the number of European rookies in the NHL in 2011-12 was its lowest in nearly 25 years.

Adam French: The Best Unknown Player Outside the NHL?
As I wait until Sunday for the game against the Oilers, I thought I should talk about a player I have followed very closely who is in a losing battle in the KHL playoffs. Heâs not a household name, in fact I doubt anybody has ever heard about him. Yet he is in my opinion the third best under 21 Russian in Russia, right behind future stars Vladimir Tarasenko and Yevgeni Kuznetsov...

Tarasenko is the number one St. Louis Blues prospect and is currently playing for SKA St. Petersburg in the Kontinental Hockey League. The former 16th overall pick shows his creativety skills and makes the opposing goalie look like a fool on this...

The Old Puck on a String Shootout Goal Trick
The CHL is not a particularly well-known hockey league but after the skills competition held during the all star break that media profile is getting lifted a little bit. That's because Vladimir Tarasenko had one of the most remarkable shootout goals I've ever seen.Skating towards the net Tarasenko seems to lose control of the puck momentarily, with it slipping away from him...

MAN ON WIRE
Video: KHL player's 'Puck On A String' trick
If people didn’t know beforehand about the fishing line, I dare say they’d think that there was some sorcery afoot. Still, that was a pretty clever trick by Vladimir Tarasenko of Team Sergei Fedorov in the KHL Skills Competition. Totally unfair, but clever nonetheless.
All in favor of abolishing every professional hockey All-Star game and replacing it with nothing...

Vladimir Tarasenko Owns The KHL Skills Competition
Admit it - their All-Star jerseys are nicer than the NHL's've been in years.
This past weekend was the KHL's all star game, and much like the NHL they have the perfunctory skills competition. The trick shot of course was worked in to this, because fans like seeing players do nifty things with sticks and pucks without embarrassing the goaltender during a game or shootout...

Vladimir Tarasenko’s amazing puck on a string trick wins KHL’s skills competition (Video)
We've all heard the expression "that guy had the puck on a string", and usually it's when we're talking about something insane that Detroit Red Wings forward Pavel Datsyuk has done.
Today, however, we mean it in the actually "that guy really did have the puck on an actual string".
You might know Vladimir Tarasenko as the St. Louis Blues' first...
