Senators' Arthur Kaliyev: Hat trick in AHL win
Rotowire
Kaliyev scored three goals in AHL Belleville's 5-0 win over Manitoba on Friday.
Kaliyev reached the 60-point mark for the season with this performance. He has five goals over his last four games and 36 tallies on the season. Should the Senators need a scoring boost at the NHL level, Kaliyev could earn a call-up given his strong play throughout the AHL campaign.

Senators' Arthur Kaliyev: Earns power-play helper
Rotowire
Kaliyev logged a power-play assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Islanders.
Kaliyev was listed on the top line but saw just 10:03 of ice time, a team-low total. The 24-year-old winger is likely best suited for bottom-six minutes, as he's failed to establish himself as a regular with the Kings and Rangers in the last three years after an 80-game showing in 2021-22. Kaliyev will get a chance to play regularly while the Senators are without Brady Tkachuk (thumb) for upward of two months.

Senators' Arthur Kaliyev: Promoted from minors
Rotowire
Kaliyev was recalled from AHL Belleville on Thursday.
Kaliyev could make his Senators debut against the Kraken on Thursday, though he would need to edge out Olle Lycksell for a spot in the lineup. Selected by the Kings in the second round of the 2019 NHL Draft, the 24-year-old winger logged just 14 regular-season games with the Rangers last year, tallying three goals and one helper along the way. In order to open up a roster spot for Kaliyev, the Senators put Brady Tkachuk (wrist) on injured reserve.

Rotowire
Kaliyev (upper body) signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Senators on Wednesday.
Kaliyev topped 50 regular-season appearances in each of his final three years with the Kings, but he was limited to just 14 games with the NHL club last year while hampered by injuries.

Arthur Kaliyev: Hits free agency
Rotowire
The Rangers didn't extend a qualifying offer to Kaliyev (upper body) on Monday, making him an unrestricted free agent, Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reports.
After topping 50 appearances in each of his final three full seasons with the Kings, Kaliyev was hampered by injuries last year, appearing in just 14 games and recording three goals, an assist, seven hits, two blocked shots and two PIM while averaging 11:13 of ice time. He missed the end of the 2024-25 campaign due to an upper-body injury, and it's unclear whether he'll be ready for the start of training camp this fall.

Rangers' Arthur Kaliyev: Not playing Sunday
Rotowire
Kaliyev (upper body) won't play against Edmonton Sunday, per Larry Brooks of the New York Post.
Kaliyev will miss his third straight game. His next chance to play will come versus Calgary on Tuesday, but he could be a healthy scratch once he's ready to return. Before playing against Winnipeg on March 11, Kaliyev was in the press box for seven consecutive contests.

Rangers' Arthur Kaliyev: Makes rare appearance Tuesday
Rotowire
Kaliyev had a shot on goal in 7:49 of ice time in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Jets.
Prior to Tuesday, Kaliyev had been scratched in seven straight games, but Juuso Parssinen and Brett Berard were out of the lineup for this contest. The 23-year-old Kaliyev was snagged off waivers from the Kings in January, and he has four points over 14 outings since joining the Rangers, but he's not a lock to be in the lineup. When he plays, he typically fills a bottom-six role, so he's also not getting time with linemates who could help him tap into his scoring potential on a regular basis.

Rangers' Arthur Kaliyev: First goal with new team
Rotowire
Kaliyev scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 5-3 win over Utah.
Kaliyev's goal was his first as a Ranger, and it was also his first point over four contests since the team claimed him off waivers from the Kings. The 23-year-old has filled a middle-six role so far, and it could take him some time to get up to speed after he missed all of training camp and the first half of the regular season due to a fractured clavicle. Kaliyev had a total of 71 points over 188 contests across parts of four seasons with the Kings, so he's yet to really display a consistent scoring touch at the NHL level.

The 23-year-old forward has 35 goals and 71 points in 188 regular-season appearances. If Kaliyev passes through waivers, he could head to AHL Ontario for playing time.

Kings' Arthur Kaliyev: Sent down for conditioning
Rotowire
Kaliyev (collarbone) was sent down to AHL Ontario on a conditioning assignment Tuesday.
Kaliyev will link up with the Reign as he works his way back from a long-term injury. He can spend up to 14 consecutive days with Ontario during his conditioning stint, and Zach Dooley of LA Kings Insider believes Kaliyev won't play for the Kings until after the Christmas break. Still, it's a step in the right direction for the 23-year-old winger, who hasn't played in an NHL game since April 3.

Kings' Arthur Kaliyev: Inks one-year deal
Rotowire

Kaliyev had seven goals and 15 points in 51 regular-season contests with LA in 2023-24. He was a restricted free agent after completing his entry-level contract. Kaliyev is in the mix for a bottom-six spot with the Kings and would have to go through waivers if he doesn't make LA's Opening Night roster.
