Can Vladimir Tarasenko Remain Hot?

Vladimir Tarasenko has been one of the best players in the league this year. With 8 goals and 6 assists in 12 games, Tarasenko is tied for 9th in league scoring; right now his 1.17 points per game (PPG) is obliterating his career rate of 0.53. He's currently owned in 83% of Yahoo! leagues, and while he most likely won't keep up his current pace, more owners are going to inclined to add him if he continues to produce.

The Blues winger is currently skating with Jori Lehtera and Jaden Schwartz. While Schwartz's ownership sits at 70% ownership, Lehtera is available in the large majority of leagues. It'll be interesting to see if this trio continues to produce at home against New Jersey (Thursday) and Nashville (Saturday) this weekend.
