BREAKING: New York rangers Fans Receives Unfortunate News As Right winger set to be out Indefinitely with Upper-Body Injury
Arthur Kaliyev appeared in 14 games for the Rangers after being claimed off waivers from the Los Angeles Kings. Since joining the team in January, he has lived up to expectations as a shoot-first player. However, due to various roster changes and the emergence of young wingers like Brennan Othmann and Brett Berard, Kaliyev has seen limited ice time, registering three goals and one assist. One of his goals came from an impressive solo effort against the Blue Jackets.
His return to the lineup against Winnipeg on Tuesday marked his first game since February 23rd. The exact nature of his upper-body injury is unclear, but with him heading back to New York for further evaluation, concerns arise—especially given his history.

Kaliyev had already missed significant time this season after breaking his clavicle during training camp with the Kings. While it’s uncertain if this injury is related, it adds to what has been a challenging year for the Staten Island native.

Set to become a restricted free agent this summer, Kaliyev’s season could be over, depending on the severity of his injury. If that’s the case, the Rangers may extend a qualifying offer or re-sign him on a short-term deal, though his long-term future with the team remains uncertain.
