The New York Rangers claimed forward Arthur Kaliyev off waivers Monday from the Los Angeles Kings. The 23-year-old wing has not played in the NHL this season after recovering from a broken clavicle suffered in training camp. He played five AHL games as part of a conditioning stint in December but didn’t appear for the Kings before going on waivers.

Arthur Kaliyev will make his Rangers and season debut against the Devils. New York claimed Kaliyev off waivers from the Los Angeles Kings on Monday. The forward was a healthy scratch in the Rangers 5-4 overtime loss to the Dallas Stars on Tuesday. Kaliyev has 71 points (35 goals, 36 assists) in 188 NHL games, all with the Kings.

When Brett Berard thought of Arthur Kaliyev’s shot, his mind darted back to January 2021. To when Berard was less than a year removed from becoming a Rangers prospect and Kaliyev was two years removed from being the Kings’ second-round pick.
