He has the whole package and had a huge year of development in the KHL, breaking into top-10 and top-5 in scoring for the season and playoffs, respectively.

Tarasenko is strong on his skates and has elite offensive skills. High ceiling player who looks like he can make the transition to playing a North American game.

He, along with Kuznetsov, are NHL-ready, no question about it, imo.
