Vladimir Tarasenko Stats

St. Louis Blues right wing Vladimir Tarasenko (hand) will return from a 10-game absence Tuesday versus Buffalo. He hurt his right hand when he blocked a shot on Dec. 31 in a game against Minnesota, but Tarasenko is good to go again and will look to add to his 29 points on Tuesday. The 31-year-old sniper will join the top power-play unit and is set to skate with Ivan Barbashev and Brayden Schenn during even-strength play.

St. Louis Blues right wing Vladimir Tarasenko (hand) is close to returning to the lineup but won't play Saturday against Chicago. His absence will stretch to 10 games and he will get his next chance to return Tuesday against Buffalo. Through 34 games this season, Tarasenko has recorded 10 goals and 19 assists. He's in a contract year and a potential trade target for a number of teams, so the Russian sniper should be very eager to impress once he's finally back on the ice. Jake Neighbours has been getting top-six minutes in his absence.

St. Louis Blues right wing Vladimir Tarasenko (hand) will miss at least four weeks of action after the team placed him on Injured Reserve on Monday. He is set to undergo re-evaluation on a right-hand injury in four weeks' time. Tarasenko's injury leaves the Blues without their third-best scorer. The Russian sniper has managed 29 points in 34 games this season. The 31-year-old has lately played on a very prolific line with Robert Thomas and Jordan Kyrou, and Pavel Buchnevich took Tarasenko's spot on the line in Monday's practice.

St. Louis Blues right wing Vladimir Tarasenko had to make an early exit against Minnesota on Saturday, playing only 4:18. He was forced off by an apparent right-hand injury which Tarasenko sustained by blocking a shot with it. The Russian sniper was back from a one-game absence after missing Thursday's meeting with Chicago, and he could be heading back to the shelf now ahead of a four-game road trip. Tarasenko has totaled 10 goals and 19 assists in 34 appearances this season, sitting third on the team's scoring list. Ivan Barbashev took his spot on Thursday and could get more action again in a bigger role if Tarasenko needs time to recover from the hand issue.
