Pavel Buchnevich of the New York Rangers is now a member of the St. Louis Blues. The Russian winger hit career highs last season with 48 points in 56 games. According to Andy Strickland, contract talks have already begun with Buchnevich and the Blues. As an arbitration-eligible restricted free agent, Buchnevich will look for a big payday with his new hockey club. In exchange for Buchnevich, the Blues traded a 2022 2nd round pick and Samuel Blais.
