He did not return.<\/p>\n<p>So far this season, the young Russian\u00a0has been vital to the Rangers offence. He scored 13 goals, five of these when on the powerplay, with 19 assists making\u00a0a total\u00a0of 32 points. This is\u00a0second for points on the team.

I believe there\u2019s another level to get to with this group.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>What This Means for the Future<\/h2>\n<p>Since his NHL debut, Buchnevich has been continually underrated by the coaching staff. His loss will be great for his teammates. He is a young talented forward that has an offensive awareness to match his scoring skill. The Rangers morale is already at an all-time low, their play against Toronto is evidence\u00a0of this. It&#8217;s becoming less and less likely that the Rangers have the motivation to step up for that playoff spot. The Rangers need to do some serious soul searching\u00a0to prove they are still contenders and not just pretenders.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo:<br \/>\n<a id=\"q-XFYxEQTANhZrkAOKnliQ\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.ca\/detail\/897153380\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'q-XFYxEQTANhZrkAOKnliQ',sig:'_eowebkrUlXn1dxGbDfCObTXlGupyEN4dJksrbHcDBU=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'897153380',caption: true ,tld:'ca',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The New York Rangers announced today that left winger Pavel Buchnevich is sidelined indefinitely with a concussion.
