The Detroit Red Wings are considering trading forward Vladimir Tarasenko, a Stanley Cup champion. This comes as the team is in playoff contention, holding the Eastern Conference's second wild card spot. Tarasenko, 32, has struggled this season, scoring only 22 points in 53 games. His performance has raised questions about his fit on the team, despite the Red Wings improving overall. General Manager Steve Yzerman may look to move Tarasenko, who has a $4.75 million contract with one year remaining. Discussions about his potential trade have begun as the deadline approaches.
