Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Picks up assist Saturday
Rotowire
Panarin dished out an assist and put six shots on goal in Saturday's 2-1 shootout win over Columbus.
Panarin had a hand in the power-play goal scored by Mika Zibanejad early in the second period. With each passing game, Panarin continues to put his early-season struggles in the rear-view mirror. While he has been kept off the scoresheet in 11 of his 19 games so far this season, the 34-year-old winger has 10 points in his last five contests and 17 points overall. After scoring 89 points or more in each of the past four regular seasons, Panarin is starting to return to his customary level of production.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Four helpers in Wednesday's win
Rotowire
Panarin notched four assists, one on the power play, in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Lightning.
He had at least one helper in every period as the Rangers erupted for their biggest offensive outburst of the season to date. Panarin has multi-point performances in three of the last four games, a stretch in which he's delivered three goals and nine points on the heels of a six-game point drought. The 34-year-old has been as inconsistent as his team as a whole so far in 2025-26, but Panarin still has a solid five goals and 16 points through 18 contests, and he appears to be in the early stages of a heater.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Lights lamp twice in Monday's win
Rotowire
Panarin scored two goals, one the game-winner, in Monday's 6-3 victory over Nashville.
The veteran blasted a one-timer past Juuse Saros from the blue line in the second period to give the Rangers a 4-1 lead, then cheekily bounced the puck in off Justus Annunen's skate from below the goal line in the third for New York's final tally of the night. Panarin has multiple points in two of the last three games, but those are his only points in the last nine contests as his struggles have mirrored those of the team as a whole. Through 17 games on the season, Panarin has managed a disappointing five goals and 12 points, but he may be heating up.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Three points versus Detroit
Rotowire
Panarin recorded a goal and two assists, including one on the power play, in Friday's 4-1 win over the Red Wings.
Panarin ended his six-game point drought in style by having a hand in three of the Rangers' four goals. He is off to a sluggish start this campaign, notching only three goals and 10 points through 15 outings. He'll need to turn things around quickly if he wants to surpass the 85-point plateau for a fifth straight campaign, but more efforts like Friday will help get him back on track in a hurry.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Pots second goal Monday
Rotowire
Panarin scored his second goal of the season in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Wild.
The 33-year-old found some open ice just 57 seconds into the first period and snapped the puck past Filip Gustavsson, but the Rangers' offense then went cold once again for the remaining 59 minutes. Panarin has managed to be productive despite the struggles of his teammates, recording seven points in eight games with 19 shots on net and a minus-1 rating.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Dominant effort vs. Montreal
Rotowire
Panarin recorded a goal and three assists, including one on the power play, in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Canadiens.
Panarin was involved in each of the Rangers' goals in this win, setting up each of the first three and later scoring what ended up being the game-winning tally at the 5:51 mark of the final period. Panarin had endured a slow start to the season with only two points in his first six outings, but he seems to have ended his slump with this dominant effort.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Set to play Opening Night
Rotowire
Head coach Mike Sullivan said Monday that Panarin (lower body) is good to go for Tuesday's Opening Night matchup against the Penguins, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports.
Panarin was sidelined for the conclusion of preseason action due to an upper-body injury, but he'll be back in action for the start of the regular season. The 33-year-old made 80 regular-season appearances for the Rangers last year, recording 37 goals, 52 assists, 18 hits, 16 PIM and 11 blocked shots while averaging 19:41 of ice time.
The Rangers clarified Friday that Panarin is dealing with an upper-body injury, Vince Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic reports.
Panarin was dealing with a lower-body injury earlier in training camp, but he's now managing an upper-body issue as training camp draws to a close. The Rangers still hope that Panarin will be ready to return in time for Tuesday's Opening Night matchup against the Penguins, but his status appears to be slightly up in the air.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Not slated to play Thursday
Rotowire
Panarin (lower body) did not take line rushes and is not expected to play in Thursday's preseason game versus the Devils, Vince Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic reports.
It looked like Panarin might get a chance to play Thursday, but he'll now have to wait until the Rangers' preseason finale in Boston on Saturday to suit up. In any case, it looks like Panarin may be able to avoid missing regular-season action, as his return appears to be close.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Unavailable for Monday's game
Rotowire
Panarin (lower body) has been ruled out for Monday's preseason game against the Islanders, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports.
Panarin remained in a non-contact jersey during practice over the weekend despite being cleared for contact late last week, but he was in a regular jersey during Monday's morning skate despite skating with the non-game group. Although Panarin will miss another preseason contest Monday, he appears to be trending in the right direction ahead of the Rangers' Opening Night matchup against the Penguins on Oct. 7.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Remains in non-contact jersey
Rotowire
Panarin (lower body) is still in a non-contact jersey at practice Saturday, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports.
Panarin was cleared for contact Friday, but there is no need to rush him back into the lineup during preseason action. Panarin had 89 points in 80 regular-season games in 2024-25, a drop from 120 points the previous campaign. The 33-year-old still has plenty of offensive flair in his game, though he may never get back to the 100-point mark in a season.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Cleared for contact
Rotowire
Panarin (lower body) has been cleared for contact, though he is wearing a non-contact jersey at practice Friday, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports.
It appears that Panarin will be healthy enough to play Opening Night against the Penguins on Oct. 7. The 33-year-old star winger had 37 goals and 52 assists in 80 regular-season appearances in 2024-25, a drop from the 120 points he had the previous campaign. Look for Panarin to get back to the 90-plus point mark this season.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Skating solo
Rotowire
Panarin (lower body) has started skating but remains out of the lineup ahead of Tuesday's matchup with Boston, Vince Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic reports.
Considering Panarin has yet to return to practice, he should probably be considered doubtful, at best, to play versus the Islanders on Thursday. Still, the fact that the veteran winger is skating bodes well for his availability for the season opener against the Penguins on Oct. 7. Once cleared to play, Panarin is a lock to reclaim his spots on the first line and No. 1 power-play unit.
Panarin left Friday's practice because of a lower-body injury, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
The severity of Panarin's injury isn't known yet, but even if it's minor, the Rangers will probably exercise an abundance of caution given that we're early in training camp. The 33-year-old had 37 goals and 89 points in 80 appearances with the Rangers last year. He's missed just two regular-season games over the past three campaigns.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Two helpers in Saturday's loss
Rotowire
Panarin notched two assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Hurricanes.
Both helpers came in the third period after the Rangers were already down 5-1, a last gasp of competitiveness before the team was officially eliminated from playoff contention. Panarin has gone down swinging in a disappointing season for the Blueshirts, producing five multi-point performances in the last eight games while racking up six goals and 14 points. The 33-year-old needs one more point over New York's last two contests to reach 90 for the fourth straight season and the fifth time in his career.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Twelve points in last seven games
Rotowire
Panarin had two goals and an assist in a 9-2 win over the Islanders on Thursday.
Panarin is on a three-game, five-point scoring streak (three goals, two assists), and he has 12 points, including six goals, and 24 shots in his last seven games. This is Panarin's eighth straight season where he has put up better than a point-per-game. And he's also 19th on the active player point list with 868 (302 goals, 566 assists) in 748 games. Panarin will play a huge role in the Rangers final three contests. The team still has a slim chance at a postseason berth, and he's the kind of player who will put his mates on his back on that quest.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Scores 300th career goal
Rotowire
Panarin scored a goal and went minus-2 in Wednesday's 8-5 loss to the Flyers.

He's up to 35 goals, 84 points, 228 shots on net and a minus-7 rating over 76 appearances.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Three points in OT win
Rotowire
Panarin produced a goal and two assists in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime win over the Wild.
His unassisted tally was a thing of beauty -- the puck slipped off Marco Rossi's stick at the Rangers' blue line to create a turnover, and Panarin outraced two other Wild players down the ice to score on a breakaway. The 33-year-old star's helper on Vincent Trocheck's OT winner might have been an even better display of skill, as Panarin's shot-pass somehow slipped under Filip Gustavsson's pad for an easy tap-in. Panarin has racked up three straight multi-point performances, and he's up to 34 goals and 82 points through 73 appearances on the season as he tries to drag the Rangers into the playoffs.

Rangers' Artemi Panarin: Pots pair of goals
Rotowire
Panarin scored twice on three shots in Saturday's 6-1 win over the Sharks.
Panarin scored twice in a span of 1:54 during the first period, and that was ultimately all the Rangers needed. He put up seven multi-point efforts over 15 games in March, accumulating 10 goals and 10 assists for the month. The winger is up to 33 tallies, 79 points, 213 shots on net and a minus-3 rating through 72 appearances. His two best goal-scoring seasons have been the last two campaigns, so Panarin is still very much producing at an elite level among NHL forwards.
