Vladimir Tarasenko

Vladimir Tarasenko's shot genuinely thrills me. A 6-foot right winger from Yaroslavl, he has spent years piling up goals in the NHL with a one-timer so precise and powerful it borders on art. I never forget that Yaroslavl is also the city scarred by the 2011 plane crash that wiped out its hockey team, which makes a player emerging from there to thrive at the sport's highest level feel especially weighty. Beneath his understated, quiet demeanor sits a fierce competitor, and it is exactly that contrast between calm exterior and burning will that draws me in.
