Tarasenko used to be able to blow by defenders on the outside fairly consistently during his first couple of years in the league, and he had clean breakaways relatively often.I dont think it's that. There are times where he absolutely flies. I'm guessing here but I think it's more about playing in the "system". I believe the ability is there, his thought process is different now.
If Tarasenko had the tenacity of a guy like Brian Sutter, he'd hit 60 easy.
Not sure. How many times this game has he had the puck on his stick and just looks so slow one on one?I dont think it's that. There are times where he absolutely flies.
