Updated Vladimir Tarasenko situation sees Red Wings trading him right back to a divisional foe

It's just - if you look at how they've gone, he's sort of the one guy that's been the odd fit and he has a no-trade clause, so ultimately he has control.

But I think - I was talking to some people who see the Red Wings a bit more than I do, and they weren't surprised to hear that in the sense that, as the team has gotten better and some players are starting to play better, it has still been a bit of a square peg in a round hole for Tarasenko.

I gotta think that - you know, Florida doesn't have a lot of flexibility or a lot to deal, and they don't have a lot of cap room.

But they know the player. That was actually the 1st time I thought of when I got off the air, I bet in particular that Tarasenko would love to go back there too.

But I just don't know where this is going to go out, I think it's safe to say there's something going on there.

I think there's an understanding that this has been a harder fit than everyone expected, and I've been told by a couple of different places to not be surprised if something happens. There are a lot of good vibes with the Red Wings, but not in this particular case.
