Through 30 games it is abundantly clear that the New York Rangers miss Pavel Buchnevich, currently third in the NHL in goals above replacement behind only Nazem Kadri and Mikko Rantanen, especially at 5v5. If the front office wants to address the hole he left this season, Timo Meier could be an interesting option to pursue.
While the team has found a way to win games and pick up points in the standings, they need help at 5v5 which Meier may just be able to provide. The Rangers currently sit 18th in the league with a GF% of 48.
