Rangers Claim Arthur Kaliyev from Waivers

The New York Rangers have claimed forward Arthur Kaliyev from the Los Angeles Kings off NHL waivers. Kaliyev, who was sidelined due to a fractured clavicle, has not played in the NHL this season but has a record of 35 goals and 71 points in 188 career games. The move follows trade rumors and Kaliyev's request for a trade during the 2023-24 season. The Los Angeles Kings' decision to waive him surprised some, given his potential and past performance in junior leagues. Meanwhile, the Kings are adjusting their roster as they reintegrate injured players.
