Daniil Tarasov Starting Against Kraken

Florida Panthers goaltender Daniil Tarasov will start on Sunday night against the Seattle Kraken, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports. Sunday's game isn't part of a back-to-back, but Panthers head coach Paul Maurice will give his No. 2 a chance to impress. Tarasov has made 21 starts this season, posting a 9-10-2 record, a 2.82 goals-against average, and a .901 save percentage. He catches the Kraken at a good time, as they have gone just 1-4-0 across the last two games, and there could be a few heavy legs on the squad after Saturday's tilt against Vancouver.

Daniil Tarasov Available for Panthers

Florida Panthers goaltender Daniil Tarasov (lower body) will be available on Thursday when the team continues its season against the Toronto Maple Leafs, David Dwork of The Hockey News reports. Tarasov has used the Olympic break to recover from a lower-body injury he suffered on Feb. 5 against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Before the break, Tarasov suffered back-to-back defeats, but he has been solid overall as Sergei Bobrovsky's backup. Across 18 starts, Tarasov has posted an 8-8-2 record, a 2.83 goals-against average, and a .899 save percentage. With the Panthers facing a back-to-back set in their return to action, Tarasov is poised to get some work next week.

Daniil Tarasov Injured in Battle of Florida

Florida Panthers goaltender Daniil Tarasov (undisclosed) missed the end of Thursday's 6-1 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning. The Russian netminder left the penalty-filled game with 6:09 played in the third period, right after the Lightning scored their fifth goal. It was a tough night for Tarasov, who allowed five goals on 25 shots. Sergei Bobrovsky, who started Wednesday's shootout win over Boston, stopped two shots in relief. Tarasov will be re-evaluated on Friday. Florida will return from the Olympic break with a back-to-back set on Feb. 26, and it will be important for the team to have Tarasov available. The 26-year-old holds an 8-8-2 record for the campaign and has allowed 2.83 goals with a .899 save percentage.

Panthers Bring in Daniil Tarasov

The Florida Panthers have added Daniil Tarasov to their goaltending department, acquiring him in a trade with the Columbus Blue Jackets. The team gave up a 2025 fifth-round draft pick in the deal. Tarasov, who finished the 2024-25 campaign with a 7-10-2 record, is a restricted free agent. Florida is set to use him as Sergei Bobrovsky's backup next season. With Bobrovsky on the wrong side of 30, Tarasov may eventually land a starting job with the Panthers. He had a tough time this season, but Tarasov has shown promise in the NHL before. He boasts a career record of 61-19-34.

Daniil Tarasov Has Begun Extension Talks with Blue Jackets

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Daniil Tarasov is wrapping up a three-year, $3.15 million contract this season, but it seems he wants to remain in Ohio. The Russian netminder, who is a pending restricted free agent, told Daria Tuboltseva of RG that he has begun negotiations on an extension with the Blue Jackets. Tarasov, a third-round draft pick by Columbus in 2017, has made 61 starts with the team, going 19-34-6. He finished the 2024-25 campaign with a record of 7-10-2 and posted a 3.54 goals-against average with a .881 save percentage and one shutout. Tarasov has not had a fun time in the NHL, but he told Tuboltseva that he is not considering a return to the KHL. The Blue Jackets already have two goalies locked up for next season in Elvis Merzlikins and Jet Greaves.

Daniil Tarasov Starts Against Rangers Sunday

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Daniil Tarasov will guard the crease in Sunday's game against the New York Rangers. This matchup has a special meaning for Tarasov, who recorded his first career shutout at Madison Square Garden against the Rangers in January. He stopped all 26 shots faced on Jan. 18 but suffered a 1-0 shootout loss. Tarasov has won his last two starts, improving his record to 6-7-2. He has allowed 3.58 goals with a .881 save percentage. The Russian netminder is sporting underwhelming numbers and has never won three games on the bounce in the NHL, which makes Tarasov a risky pick for fantasy managers on Sunday.

Daniil Tarasov Faces Avalanche On Saturday

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Daniil Tarasov will get the nod for Saturday's tough road matchup against the Colorado Avalanche. He'll head to work for the first time this season following Elvis Merzlikins' exploits in Thursday's 3-2 loss to Minnesota. Playing on a struggling team, Tarasov has had very little joy in his NHL career, going 12-24-4 across 42 starts. He has registered a 3.39 goals-against average with a .905 save percentage. This promises to be another long night for Tarasov, although he beat the Avalanche with a 45-save effort last season and takes on a team that's missing multiple important offensive pieces.

Daniil Tarasov Injured Versus Islanders

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Daniil Tarasov sustained an upper-body injury in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Islanders. He came out of the contest after stopping 13 of 15 shots across 17:53 of action. With Elvis Merzlikins (lower body) already unavailable, Jet Greaves finished the task, allowing one goal on 25 shots. Greaves could now see quite a bit of action over the final stretch of the season, with his colleagues battling health issues. The 23-year-old carries a 1-3-0 record and has posted a good .917 save percentage despite allowing 3.04 goals.

Daniil Tarasov Takes Over The Crease Tuesday

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Daniil Tarasov will get the starting nod for Tuesday's road game versus the Ottawa Senators. The 24-year-old will take over for Elvis Merzlikins who has started the club's last two games and six of the last eight. Tarasov has endured an inconsistent season for the lowly Blue Jackets as he actually started five games in a six-game stretch to show what he can do. Unfortunately, he has worked to a 3.79 goals-against average and an .881 save percentage across 10 outings, going 3-5-2 in that time. His -7.33 goals saved above average, as per Hockey Reference, ranks 59th of 69 qualified netminders. He will take on a Senators team that is tied for eighth with 3.38 goals per game on the season.

Daniil Tarasov Doubtful For Start Of Season

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Daniil Tarasov (knee) is in danger of missing the start of the season. The Russian netminder hurt his knee in practice before training camp started, and it's unclear if he can recover in time for the team's season opener, which comes on Oct. 12 versus Philadelphia. The Blue Jackets added Spencer Martin to the roster off waivers last week to beef up their goalie department, and he looks set to begin the season as Elvis Merzlikins' backup if Tarasov can't make it back in time. Tarasov posted a decent 5-5-0 record in the NHL last season, but his save percentage was at a lowly .882, and the 24-year-old gave up nearly four goals a night (3.85).

Daniil Tarasov In Blue Jackets Net On Tuesday

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Daniil Tarasov will make his first start since Dec. 23 Tuesday against Nashville. He's back from an upper-body injury and will complete a back-to-back set after Elvis Merzlikins faced the Rangers on Monday. The team currently doesn't have Joonas Korpisalo (personal) available. Columbus has struggled badly all season and it's resulted in some horrible numbers for the goalies, with Tarasov sitting on a 2-8-1 record. He has dropped all of his last six starts and owns a 3.40 goals-against average for the season with a .907 save percentage. Fantasy managers should have much better options available to them on a busy night.

Daniil Tarasov Leads Blue Jackets To Victory Sunday

Columbus Blue Jackets netminder Daniil Tarasov stopped 47 of 50 shots to knock off the Florida Panthers 5-3 Sunday. Tarasov hasn't played in a game since October 28th, where he picked up a loss to Boston. The Russian netminder has a record of 2-3-0 and has allowed 17 goals this season. He is getting some starts due to Elvis Merzlinkins going down with an undisclosed injury. Merzlinkins should be available soon, and Tarasov will return to being a third-string goalie for the Blue Jackets. He is not a player to be looked for fantasy play at this time.

Daniil Tarasov Gets Hurt Against Hurricanes

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Daniil Tarasov sustained a lower-body injury and didn't play in the final period of Saturday's 7-4 loss to Carolina. The young Russian performed very well until getting injured, stopping 31 of 33 shots. Elvis Merzlikins came in for the third period and couldn't hold on to a 4-2 lead, giving up four goals on 15 shots. This was Tarasov's fourth appearance of the season. He's yet to win a game, but the 22-year-old has recorded a nice 2.23 goals-against average with a .937 save percentage. The team hasn't yet provided an update on Tarasov's status.

Daniil Tarasov Starts Again For Columbus Saturday

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Daniil Tarasov will start again Saturday afternoon versus the Carolina Hurricanes. Tarasov has played well in his first two NHL starts stopping 63 of 68 shots. The problem is goal support which Columbus has been rather challenged. Carolina features one of the highest-shot volume teams in the NHL. So, the Russian goaltender expects to face a lot of pucks again this afternoon. His fundamentals and footwork have been quite good. He has two quality starts and a third is very possible at home versus the Hurricanes.

Daniil Tarasov Confirmed To Start For Columbus

Columbus Blue Jackets goalie Daniil Tarasov will get the opportunity to play in his second NHL game. Joonas Korpisalo has been put on the team's injured reserve list due to an illness. The Russian-born netminder, only NHL action, resulted in a loss to the Stars where he allowed three goals on 40 shots. He will have a tough test Saturday against the high-flying Washington Capitals for his second start.

Daniil Tarasov Plays Well In Columbus Defeat

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Daniil Tarasov unexpectedly started on Thursday night against the Dallas Stars. This was because both Elvis Merzlikins and Joonas Korpisalo were too ill to play. Tarasov held his own against a Dallas onslaught that featured 37 shots on goal in all. He did allow two goals in 49 seconds to the Stars on Thursday in the 3-2 loss. However, Tarasov kept Columbus in the game during the third period stopping several point-blank chances. Did the goaltender earn some more playing time down the road? That answer is possibly yes.
