Vladimir Tarasenko - NHL News & Rumors

Two-point effort Saturday Tarasenko scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Oilers.

Impact Both points came in the third period, providing some insurance for the Wild after they'd emerged from a first first frame with a 3-2 lead. Tarasenko is skating on the third line at even strength and got bumped down to the second power-play unit Saturday in favor of Mats Zuccarello, but he's been productive of late anyway, lighting the lamp in three straight games and delivering five goals and nine points over the last seven contests.

Ready to return Tarasenko (lower body) was activated off injured reserve Saturday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.

Impact Tarasenko missed seven straight games, but he's slated to serve in a middle-six capacity Saturday against Buffalo. He has two goals and 10 points in 18 appearances with Minnesota in 2025-26. Hunter Haight was reassigned to AHL Iowa in a corresponding move.

Has resumed skating Tarasenko (lower body) has resumed skating and is the closest of the Wild's injured players to returning, Dylan Loucks of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Tarasenko's return may not be too far away, though it's unlikely to be Saturday versus the Sabres. The Wild haven't established a firm timeline for Tarasenko's return yet, but he could be an option at some point during the team's upcoming road trip through Western Canada.

NOVEMBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Moved to injured reserve Tarasenko (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.

Impact Tarasenko has already missed enough time to be activated whenever he is ready, but the decision to move him to IR would seem to indicate he won't be available versus the Penguins on Friday. Prior to getting hurt, the veteran winger was mired in a five-game goal drought during which he recorded two assists, eight shots and four blocks. Once given the all-clear, Tarasenko should slot into a middle-six role for the Wild.

NOVEMBER 20 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Wednesday's game Tarasenko (lower body) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Carolina, NHL.com reports.

Impact Tarasenko remains day-to-day due to his lower-body injury, and he'll be unavailable for a third consecutive matchup Wednesday. His next opportunity to suit up will be against Pittsburgh, but it's not yet clear whether he'll be available.
