Vladimir Tarasenko is still adjusting to life in his new surroundings after spending 11 seasons with the team that drafted him in St. Louis. After being traded by the Blues to the New York Rangers three weeks ago, he registered his first multi-point game leading his new team to a huge 3-2 OT win over the Philadelphia Flyers.
“I like the old stuff and I really don’t like changes,” Tarasenko said to TNT. “I spent a lot of time in one place…I was scared to move. My wife always support me and I’m really thankful for the guys for the way they treated me when I came.
