Don’t know why it would be strange for someone who supposedly blames the blues medical staff for his shoulder surgeries not taking to not thank them. I’ve read other goodbyes where players directly thank the medical staff, especially when they had many injuries while playing for a team.
I see this is an unpopular take

It’s never been like me to say this about an O6 team…
GO RANGERS!!!
I really mean it too. I was starting to like this team even before Vova went there. Igor, Breadman, Fox, Kakko, Laffy, Truba, K’Andre… I like these guys. I was rooting for them in the playoffs over Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay last year.
I don’t like all the “We are hockey royalty. You must lick our boots.” crap that comes with O6 teams. The guys on this team though… they are good guys. I like this young group, and how they play hockey.
And I love Vova. I love that Vova is playing with his old friend.
Go Rangers!!

ChatGPT poem for Vladi:
(Verse 1) Oh Tarasenko, our favorite scorer A hero to the Blues, forever a roarer With your stick in hand, you lit up the night Taking us to victory, with your shots so bright
(Chorus) Country roads, take us back to St. Louis Where Tarasenko’s skills shone bright and true-is With every goal you scored, we felt so proud And now we send you off, as you head out
(Verse 2) From the Arch to the rink, you were our guy Leading us to the playoffs, with each victory high Your heart and soul, in every game you played A true ambassador, of the St. Louis shade
(Chorus) Country roads, take us back to St. Louis Where Tarasenko’s skills shone bright and true-is With every goal you scored, we felt so proud And now we send you off, as you head out
(Bridge) Though you’re moving on, to a new team and town We’ll never forget, all the joy you brought down To our city and our hearts, you’ll always belong With a place in our memories, where you’ll always be strong
(Chorus) Country roads, take us back to St. Louis Where Tarasenko’s skills shone bright and true-is With every goal you scored, we felt so proud And now we send you off, as you head out
(Outro) So goodbye Tarasenko, it’s been real But we’ll always be proud, of the way you feel For the St. Louis Blues, and all you’ve done You’ll always be a hero, to everyone.

This hurts. Go get that cup Vova.

Goodbye Vova 🥲 watching you turn from a rookie prospect to a elite NHL scoring threat was a absolute treat. Thank you for playing a huge part in bringing the cup home to STL and being a catalyst for the most fun and exciting Blues era that I think I’ll ever witness, full of my favorite hockey moments and memories ever.
Further cementing himself as my favorite player with how much of a class act he has been ever since the trade request. He had the respect for the fans and for himself to continue to give his full effort. I’m so glad that I got to see him last year have a new best career year in a blues uniform one last time and as a result, was the first blues player I’ve seen reach the 80 point mark.
Good luck with Breadman and go get yourself another cup!
No matter what went wrong with the team Vova still talked up the fans and city. He was a great player and person to have here. Now go get another cup Vova.

Did he name one of his sons Artemi?
Edit I see it as artem now, I wonder if it’s in honor of his now teammate.

I want ROR’s letter to say:
“STL, see ya later. And Schenn, don’t take the A off.”

I will be a Vlai fan, regardless of the jersey he wears🤔🤨 Except Chicago, that could be a deal breaker. Good Luck Vlady, St. Louis will always have a home for you.

Has there ever been a more supportive fan base for a player in the nhl.! This guy is class all the way and blues fans are as well. We got a cup! Vlad was a integral part of that even if he wasn’t playing, we couldn’t have done it without him
