ST. LOUIS — Vladimir Tarasenko's apologists are working overtime.
The mercurial Blues forward with a total of 42 regular and postseason games played the past two seasons and $15 million left on a contract that runs through the next two seasons has decided he wants out. On his terms. Now.
His camp has thrown the Blues’ medical staff under the bus for the continued shoulder problems that have limited the winger’s game while simultaneously decreasing his trade value.
