Vladimir Tarasenko has asked the St. Louis Blues for a trade, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press on Thursday.

The Blues declined comment when asked about Tarasenko's trade request, which was first reported by The Athletic. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the request was not made public.

Tarasenko is a five-time 30-goal scorer, but injuries have limited him to just seven in 34 games the past two seasons. He has undergone three shoulder surgeries in three years, most recently a second operations on his left shoulder last fall.
