Tarasenko scored an empty-net goal on two shots in Monday's 6-4 win over the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

Tarasenko ended a seven-game goal drought with the empty-netter. The winger has struggled throughout the campaign while playing in a smaller role. He's produced 32 points, 131 shots on net, 62 hits, 34 blocked shots and a minus-15 rating over 78 appearances, with his 14:46 average ice time being his lowest mark since his 2012-13 rookie year with the Blues.

Tarasenko scored a goal on his only shot in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

Tarasenko has two goals and three assists over his last eight outings, including three points in his last three contests. The 33-year-old winger's recent uptick in production earned him a promotion to the top line at even strength, though he saw just 14:23 of ice time in a game where the Red Wings spent a lot of time on the power play. Tarasenko is now at 10 goals, 30 points, 123 shots on net, 60 hits, 30 blocked shots and a minus-15 rating over 70 appearances.

Tarasenko notched a power-play assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche.

EDGE Analysis

Tarasenko has three helpers over six contests since he last scored a goal. The 33-year-old winger's assist Tuesday was his first power-play point since Jan. 23 versus the Canadiens. His smaller role this season, both at even strength and on the power play, has led to a dramatic decrease in offense. Tarasenko is at nine goals, 20 helpers, eight power-play points, 59 hits, 30 blocked shots and a minus-15 rating across 69 outings.

Tarasenko scored a goal in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

Tarasenko's tally in the second period ultimately held up as the game-winner. The 33-year-old winger had been limited to just one assist and a minus-5 rating over his previous six contests. For the season, he continues to play a smaller role as a depth scorer in the middle six, earning nine goals, 26 points, 114 shots on net, 49 hits and a minus-12 rating over 63 appearances. Tarasenko is on pace for his lowest-scoring full campaign -- the last time he was under the 40-point mark without injuries being a factor was in his 2012-13 rookie year, when he put up 19 points over 38 appearances.

Tarasenko scored a goal on two shots and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Wild.

EDGE Analysis

Tarasenko got the Red Wings on the board at 10:12 of the second period. Simon Edvinsson did the rest, scoring twice to complete Detroit's comeback win. This was Tarasenko's second goal and third point over the last four games. The winger is up to eight goals, 25 points, 98 shots on net, 44 hits and a minus-7 rating through 56 appearances. He's well behind the pace that saw him rack up 23 goals and 55 points across 76 regular-season appearances in 2023-24, but it's clear the 33-year-old is more of a depth scorer at this stage of his career.

Tarasenko scored a goal Saturday in a 6-3 loss to the Lightning.

EDGE Analysis

He scored early in the first period, tipping Moritz Seider's pass between Andrei Vasilevskiy's pads for his 300th NHL goal. Tarasenko had been stalled at 299 since Jan. 14th, a span of 10 games. He's had a forgettable season with just seven goals and 22 points in 53 games. It's fair to say that Tarasenko has been a poor fit in Detroit. There have been murmurs that he could be on the move in a trade, even with a two-year deal and no-trade clause. Keep an eye on this because a new home could result in a big scoring boost for this talented winger.

Tarasenko notched an assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

Tarasenko has two helpers over his last seven outings. The 33-year-old has moved up to the second line during Patrick Kane's (upper body) absence, but Tarasenko could find himself back on the third line once Kane returns. For the season, Tarasenko has fairly modest production with 21 points, 84 shots on net, 42 hits and a minus-9 rating through 50 appearances in a middle-six role.

Tarasenko (illness) is slated to play in Thursday's clash against Edmonton, according to Ansar Khan of MLive.com.

EDGE Analysis

Tarasenko missed Monday's 5-2 win over Los Angeles due to the illness. He has six goals and 20 points over 48 outings in 2024-25. Tarasenko will likely serve in a bottom-six capacity in his return, though he should still receive power-play ice time.

Tarasenko (illness) did not participate in Tuesday's practice, according to Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press.

EDGE Analysis

Tarasenko was unable to play in Monday's 5-2 win over Los Angeles, and his status is uncertain for Thursday's road matchup against the Oilers. Dominik Shine, who made his NHL debut Monday, should continue to occupy a fourth-line role so long as Tarasenko is sidelined.

Tarasenko (illness) will not play Monday against the Kings, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.

EDGE Analysis
