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

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

Blues' Pavel Buchnevich: 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.
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 focusing on the increased defensive responsibilities that have come with his move to playing center full-time -- he's also a paltry 42-for-144 on faceoffs, a 29.2 percent win rate.

Blues' Pavel Buchnevich: Gets points, struggles at dot
Buchnevich put up two assists Thursday in a 5-1 win over Toronto.
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 faceoff 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.

Blues' Pavel Buchnevich: 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.
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.

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

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

Blues' Pavel Buchnevich: Takes slight step back in 2023-24
Buchnevich contributed 27 goals and 36 assists across 80 games during 2023-24.
Buchnevich scored 26 goals and added 41 assists last season, but he managed that total across just 63 contests. However, Buchnevich had a 21.1 shooting percentage in 2023-24, so some regression was anticipated. By contrast, the 29-year-old succeeded on 13.0 percent of his shots this year, which is more in line with his career average of 14.6. The 29-year-old winger is heading into the final season of his contract carrying a $5.8 million cap hit. The Blues will try to sign him to an extension this summer, but if he doesn't put pen to paper, the Russian winger will be subjected to trade speculation.

Blues' Pavel Buchnevich: Sets up man-advantage goal
Buchnevich supplied a power-play assist in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Hurricanes.
The Blues were officially knocked out of playoff contention Friday, but we expect that Buchnevich will continue playing at a high level for the two games that remain on their regular-season schedule. After all, he's sporting an active five-game point streak comprised of a goal and four assists, with three of those helpers taking place on the man advantage. Currently the Blues' fourth-highest paid forward with a $5.8 million AAV, Buchnevich will be an unrestricted free agent at the end of the 2024-25 campaign.

Blues' Pavel Buchnevich: Finds twine Sunday
Buchnevich scored a goal on four shots in Sunday's 6-5 shootout win over the Ducks.
Buchnevich's goal stretched the Blues' lead to 4-2 late in the second period. He has three goals and nine assists over his last 11 outings while maintaining a significant top-six role. The 28-year-old is up to 27 goals, 61 points, 200 shots on net, 48 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 76 contests overall. It's a strong year, but it's likely to be the worst of his three campaigns in St. Louis.

Blues' Pavel Buchnevich: Logs assist in loss
Buchnevich notched an assist, four shots on goal, three blocked shots, two hits, two PIM and a minus-3 rating in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Predators.
Buchnevich did a little bit of everything while again lining up as the second-line center. The 28-year-old forward has 10 points over his last nine games, but he hasn't shown much consistency from one contest to another. He's at 59 points, 195 shots on net, 48 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 74 outings this season, putting him on track for his worst point total in three years as a Blue.

Blues' Pavel Buchnevich: Three helpers Saturday

The 28-year-old helped set up all three goals of Jordan Kyrou's hat trick, one in the second period and two in the third. Buchnevich has gone 12 games without scoring a goal, but he's stayed productive with eight assists in the last seven contests. On the season, he's delivered 24 goals and 56 points through 69 games.

Blues' Pavel Buchnevich: Trio of assists lead to win
Buchnevich had three assists, all on the power play, in Sunday's 4-2 win over Anaheim.
Sunday's apples bring Buchnevich to 52 points through 66 games. That solid total includes 24 goals, but it's worth noting that the goals haven't been coming as freely in recent weeks. He has yet to score a goal in nine games in March, and Buchnevich had just one helper all month prior to Sunday's outburst. Still, he's getting lots of ice time and is playing a significant role on the power play.

That surge has him up to 24 tallies, 48 points, 154 shots on net, 40 PIM and a plus-11 rating through 57 appearances on the year. Buchnevich continues to be reliable in a top-six role.

Buchnevich would then complete a natural hat trick with an empty-netter in the final frame to cap a 4-0 victory. The 28-year-old winger now has five goals and six points in his last four contests. Buchnevich is up to 22 goals and 46 points through 54 games this year as his value continues to increase ahead of the trade deadline.
