Lupo acquires Keeper Rights to Tarasenko

Vladimir Tarasenko is taking his talents to Yzerman's Wings

Lupo traded his 2017 2nd Round Pick in the upcoming draft to Ed for the rights to all-star sniper Vladimir Tarasenko and a 2017 16th Round Pick. Tarasenko has one year left of keeper eligibility and is a projected first round pick. The right winger had 39 goals last season and 75 points. Lupo was in desperate need of a first round talent and now has no picks in the first five rounds of the draft.
