Tarasenko has 1 more year left at $7.5 MM. He is 30 years old and coming off a 82 point campaign when he scored 34 goals. He also scored 6 goals in 12 playoff games.
Tarasenko has been a consistent 30 goal scorer in the league. Even if he doesn't want to stay in Calgary, he is someone who can easily get a 1st round pick at the deadline.

If the team is contending for a playoff position, they won’t trade him at the trade deadline.
