The New York Rangers made a low-risk, high-reward type of move to claim Arthur Kaliyev off waivers from the Los Angeles Kings on Sunday. At this point of the season, it’s rare to see the Rangers pick up another player, but the prospect of adding a young forward the likes of Kaliyev was too good for Chris Drury and Peter Laviolette to pass on.

The New York Rangers claimed forward Arthur Kaliyev off waivers Monday from the Los Angeles Kings. The 23-year-old wing has not played in the NHL this season after recovering from a broken clavicle suffered in training camp. He played five AHL games as part of a conditioning stint in December but didn’t appear for the Kings before going on waivers.

If Kaliyev can revive his NHL trajectory with the Rangers, his shot will likely sit at the center of the resurgence.
