As we wait and see if the St. Louis Blues will be able to finish their true defense of the Stanley Cup, I choose to be an optimist and say some form of finish will come. Thus, why not discuss who might lead the team when things restart.
What better place to start than with the player the Blues should be counting on. If/when the 2019-20 season resumes, Vladimir Tarasenko is going to hit the ground running.
It would be easy to question this idea. Tarasenko is not normally a great spring player.
In fact, Tarasenko’s lowest point percentage is in the playoffs.
