It’s fitting that it was Star Wars night that prompted this article from Jeremy Rutherford: “Blues may have to give Tarasenko more help.”
Help him, Army-Wan. You’re his only hope.
Tarasenko is at a five game goalless streak right now. Rutherford details the shuffling that’s gone on recently in hopes to jump start the Blues’ best goal scorer:
Three games ago, the Blues altered their forward combinations, placing Nail Yakupov on a line with Vladimir Tarasenko and Jori Lehtera.
Ken Hitchcock liked their play in the last two games of the road trip and kept them together for Tuesday's game against Ottawa.
