The Athletic reports that St Louis winger Vladimir Tarasenko has asked to be traded following issues with repeated surgeries on his shoulder.
The 29 year old - who has two years remaining with a cap hit of $7.5M per year - has reportedly provided management with ten teams he d be willing to be traded to, including the New York Rangers.
While the Rangers could probably afford him, it would seem to make little sense for the organization to add another winger when they are searching for depth on defense and at center, as well as some more grind throughout the lineup.
