PAVEL BUCHNEVICH NEWS

Set to remain out Tuesday Buchnevich (lower body) is not expected back in the lineup versus the Jets on Tuesday, per Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic.

Impact Buchnevich will miss his second straight game due to his lower-body injury. As of now, the team hasn't provided a clear update on when the 29-year-old winger might be ready to return to action. Prior to getting hurt, Buchnevich was producing offensively with two goals and six helpers, including three with the man advantage, in his last 11 outings.

Buchnevich has six goals and nine assists in 24 games this season, including a goal and three helpers on the power play.

Suffers lower-body injury Buchnevich won't return to Wednesday's game versus the Devils due to a lower-body injury.

Impact Buchnevich suffered the injury in the second period and was quickly ruled out during the subsequent intermission. The 29-year-old should be considered day-to-day ahead of Saturday's game versus the Flyers. If he can't play, Mathieu Joseph or Alexandre Texier could replace him in the lineup.

Puts away empty-netter Buchnevich scored an empty-net goal on four shots and added four hits in Monday's 5-2 win over the Rangers.

Impact The former Ranger finished off the Blues' win against his old team. Buchnevich has done alright in November with three goals and eight points over 12 appearances this month. The 29-year-old is up to 14 points, 43 shots on net, 15 hits and a minus-5 rating over 23 contests. His role is unlikely to change much following the Blues' hiring of Jim Montgomery to replace Drew Bannister as head coach -- look for Buchnevich to remain in a top-six role with power-play time.

Offers power-play assist Buchnevich notched a power-play assist in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Islanders.

Impact The helper was Buchnevich's second over the last five games. He's been decent in November with two goals and five assists through 11 appearances, but the fact that he's in a top-line role while carrying an $8 million cap hit suggests that he should be capable of more. For the season, the 29-year-old has five goals, eight assists, four power-play points, 39 shots on net and a minus-6 rating over 22 appearances.

Finds back of net Thursday Buchnevich netted his fifth goal of the season Thursday in a 4-3 overtime loss to Buffalo.

Impact Buchnevich tied the score at 2-2 in the middle frame after being assisted by Jordan Kyrou. Buchnevich has been inconsistent during the early portion of the campaign -- Thursday marked only the second time this season that the Russian forward has produced points in back-to-back games. Overall, the 29-year-old has banked five goals, six assists and a minus-2 rating over 17 appearances while filling a top-line role and spot on the No. 1 power-play unit.

Two apples in loss Buchnevich provided two assists Thursday in a 4-2 loss to Utah.

Impact Buchnevich registered the primary assist on each of St. Louis' goals in the loss, and it was his third multi-point effort of the season. The left-shot winger added one shot, one hit and a minus-2 rating in 18:37 of ice time. Buchnevich has been streaky early on in the season -- seven of his nine points have come in three games combined. The 29-year-old is in a three-way tie for second on the team in points, and overall, he's up to four goals, five assists, seven PIM, 24 shots, 10 blocks, nine hits, five takeaways and an even plus-minus rating over 14 outings.

Deposits empty-netter Buchnevich scored an empty-net goal on two shots and added five PIM in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Maple Leafs.

Impact Buchnevich took out some frustration on Pontus Holmberg following the Toronto forward's slash against Jake Neighbours in the third period. Buchnevich was released from the penalty box in time to score an empty-netter, ending a three-game dry spell on offense. The 29-year-old has four goals, three assists, 20 shots on net, eight hits, 10 blocked shots, seven PIM and a plus-3 rating over 12 contests this season. That's modest offense for a player that's topped the 60-point mark in three straight years, though he may be hampered by trying to learn center -- he's also a paltry 42-for-144 on faceoffs, a 29.2 percent win rate.

Gets points, but schooled at dot Buchnevich put up two assists Thursday in a 5-1 win over Toronto.

Impact The points were his first in five games. The Buchnevich experiment at 1C seems to be working in all parts of the game except at the face-off dot. He was schooled there Thursday, winning just four-of 15 (26.7 percent). There will be more pressure on him now that Robert Thomas faces a six-week absence due to a broken ankle. That could impact Buchnevich's offense, but it could also be his catalyst to excellence.

In on all three goals in loss Buchnevich scored twice on four shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact Buchnevich had a point in each period, including a power-play tally in the second frame. He's up to three goals, one assist, nine shots on net and a plus-5 rating through three contests. Buchnevich is among the most talented forwards on the Blues' roster, and he's played at a point-per-game pace in two of the last three years, so this burst of offense to begin the year isn't too surprising. Fantasy managers can have him in their lineups with confidence.

Lights lamp Thursday Buchnevich scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks.

Impact Buchnevich got the Blues on the board in the first period. The 29-year-old forward has played down the middle to begin 2024-25 after serving as a winger for most of his career. He has five shots on net and a plus-3 rating through the first two games this season, and after signing a six-year extension in July, he's a lock to see top-six minutes and significant power-play time.

Signs six-year extension Buchnevich agreed to terms on a six-year, $48 million contract extension with St. Louis on Tuesday.

Impact Buchnevich has reached the 60-point threshold in each of the past three seasons with the Blues, including hitting the 25-goal mark in all of those campaigns. There is no reason to expect any sort of production drop-off for the Russian winger heading into 2024-25, so fantasy players should be looking at him in the early rounds of re-draft formats.
