NEW YORK When Pavel Buchnevich was traded to St. Louis from New York in July, his former coach with the Rangers, David Quinn, said the Blues "got him right in the sweet spot." Quinn went on. Blues acquire Buchnevich in trade with Rangers | NHL.com The deal sent Sammy Blais and a 2022 second-round pick to the Rangers. So thank you (to Blues fans) for that. The Rangers now have $19.5 million in salary cap space (Blais is due to make a modest $1.5 million) with free agency set to open July 28. He was on this past last year as well. That helps generate offense off the rush and gain the zone to set up to cycle. Blais tallied four assists in 14 games before the injury last season and he recorded more ice time than he ever did with the Blues on average. Though the Rangers have taken a big step this season as a team, sitting third in the Metropolitan Division, they still could desperately use him. In 46 games with the Blues, Buchnevich is tied for second on the roster in goals (19), game-winning goals (three) and points (46). Buchnevich is a legitimate top-six performer, while Blais has never played more than 40 games or produced more than 15 points in a season. The No. Blais scored 15 points (eight goals, seven assists) in 36 regular-season games this season and one goal in four playoff games. And there is a need for a left defenseman with size and a physical presence. In the minutes he's played in the past, he's had good production. And Blais, just like Goodrow, has a ring, though Goodrow, the former Lightning winger, surely played a larger role in Tampa Bays repeat 2020 and 2021 titles than Blais did for the 2019 Blues. All rights reserved. Buchnevich to STL for Blais and a 2nd in 2022, Blues have had extension talks with Buchnevich throughout the afternoon. I hope Blais can get back on the ice and find success, as he was always a fun player to have in St. Louis. They still have plenty of offensively gifted players and now they have more balance. July 26, 2021 by Brian Abate. Maybe Goodrows goal totals come down a bit too. I like my role on the team.
