After going scoreless in St. Louis' season opener against Seattle, Buchnevich has bagged three goals and one assist with a plus-four rating. It looks like the experiment of playing him at center is working for the Blues. Buchnevich will aim to score in three consecutive games for the first time since January when the Blues face Minnesota on Tuesday night.
St. Louis Blues winger Pavel Buchnevich (foot) missed practice on Sunday after getting injured in Saturday's preseason contest against Dallas. Buchnevich got hurt when he blocked a shot with his foot. He managed to finish the game, so it looks like Buchnevich isn't seriously hurt, but he was kept off the ice on Sunday. The Blues have no practice scheduled for Monday, giving Buchnevich two rest days to get better. After averaging more than a point per game in two consecutive seasons, Buchnevich took a step back in 2023-24 with 63 points (27 goals, 36 assists) in 80 appearances.

With the performance, Buchnevich broke an offensive slump, as he had collected only one point in his previous eight appearances this month. His recent form has been a disappointment, but Buchnevich's overall play in 2023-24 will have made quite a few fantasy managers happy.

There hadn't been a natural hat trick in the regular season by a Blues player since David Backes had produced one on Jan. 6, 2015.

His first goal ended up as the game-winner, and Buchnevich completed his third three-point night of the season with an empty-netter.

In November, Buchnevich has scored seven goals and totaled 14 points through 13 games, after a slow start to the season with only two points through the first five games.

St. Louis Blues forward Pavel Buchnevich (upper body) is considered a game-time decision for Tuesday's matchup against the Jets. Buchnevich has said he's ready to play, but head coach Craig Berube hasn't rushed into confirming his comeback. The Russian forward has been out for two games. Even if he returns, Berube plans to keep the current top-line trio -- Brandon Saad, Robert Thomas, and Jordan Kyrou -- together for Tuesday's game.
St. Louis Blues forward Pavel Buchnevich will be unavailable for a second consecutive game Saturday against Pittsburgh. He's back skating but hasn't taken contact, so the Blues still need to maneuver without one of their top scorers from last season.

Following Buchnevich's injury, Brandon Saad has been skating on the top line with Robert Thomas and Jordan Kyrou.

He was injured on Saturday against Seattle and was already considered doubtful for the clash after being unable to join the team for practice.

Blues "Optimistic" About Pavel Buchnevich's Injury
St. Louis Blues forward Pavel Buchnevich (upper body) couldn't complete Saturday's 2-1 shootout victory over Seattle, but it looks like he managed to avoid serious injury. Blues head coach Craig Berube is optimistic about the injury and noted that Buchnevich "feels not bad." Buchnevich logged only seven shifts and 5:27 of ice time in Saturday's game, getting hurt when Seattle defenseman Jamie Oleksiak delivered him a big hit in the first period. The Russian forward has finished the first two games of the season without a single point, but he's been a point-per-game player in each of the past two seasons and should remain among St. Louis' top forwards in 2023-24.
St. Louis Blues forwards Robert Thomas (upper body) and Pavel Buchnevich (upper body) aren't healthy enough to play Thursday against Chicago. Both have done well lately, but the Blues have dropped out of the playoff race and there's no point in keeping injured players in the lineup. With two top-six pieces out, Jake Neighbours could see a nice chunk of extra minutes, while Sammy Blais and Jakub Vrana have earned extra opportunities as well with their recent performances.
Pavel Buchnevich Extends Points Streak With His Second Hat Trick
St. Louis winger Pavel Buchnevich recorded his second career hat trick in Wednesday's 8-5 loss to Minnesota. He had an even-strength marker to open and finish the scoring and fitted a power-play goal in between. The Blues continue to disappoint on most nights, but that hasn't kept Buchnevich from recording a 10-game point streak, which puts him tied with Seattle's Vince Dunn for the longest active scoring run in the league. The Russian winger has missed a bunch of action with injury this season, but sitting on 61 points with 52 games played, he still has a chance to finish as the Blues' top scorer. Jordan Kyrou leads the pack with 64 points.
St. Louis Blues winger Pavel Buchnevich was the main offensive catalyst in Thursday's clash with the Sharks, producing four assists in a 6-3 win. Half of his helpers came with the man advantage.

The Blues have lost a number of offensive pieces in recent weeks, but Buchnevich is enjoying his stay on the team and has registered two goals and six assists in four games since returning from a lower-body injury.

St. Louis Blues winger Pavel Buchnevich suffered a lower-body injury in Saturday's matchup against Colorado and has been ruled out from Sunday's meeting with Ottawa. He was able to skate for only 6:04 on Saturday and won't join the team for the trip to Canada. Buchnevich has unfortunately had health issues all season long and is set to miss his 14th contest. When healthy, Buchnevich has been one of the best players this season for the Blues, contributing 16 goals and 27 assists in 42 games. The top six also lost Brandon Saad (upper body) this week and Ryan O'Reilly was traded to Toronto on Friday, so head coach Craig Berube has plenty to ponder regarding his lines ahead of Sunday's game.
St. Louis Blues winger Pavel Buchnevich (ankle) has been placed on Injured Reserve and will be re-evaluated after the All-Star break. He has undergone a minor surgical procedure to address an infection to his ankle.

Vladimir Tarasenko, who will return from a hand injury on Tuesday, is set to replace Buchnevich in the top six.
St. Louis Blues winger Pavel Buchnevich assisted on three goals Thursday, playing a big part in a 5-3 road win over New Jersey.

The Russian winger now boasts 12 points in 10 games since returning from a lower-body injury that kept him out for four contests. Buchnevich had a poor start to the campaign, but he has seemingly gotten better with each week and is now averaging over a point per game, with 12 goals and 20 assists racked up in 30 appearances. He plays a huge part on offense for a team that has exploded for 11 goals in two games since two key pieces Vladimir Tarasenko (hand) and Ryan O'Reilly (foot) were ruled out for multiple weeks.
St. Louis Blues winger Pavel Buchnevich (lower body) is set to be back in the lineup Thursday versus Edmonton. He's been forced to watch four games on the sidelines with a lower-body injury after heating up and scoring in three consecutive games. A number of Blues players are struggling this season, but that's not the case with Buchnevich, who has averaged a point per game in his 20 outings. He has gone scoreless just once in his last 10 appearances, and Buchnevich's hot form could also provide a lift for his linemates. The 27-year-old was skating with Brayden Schenn and Vladimir Tarasenko in Wednesday's practice.
St. Louis Blues winger Pavel Buchnevich (lower body) is forced to miss a second consecutive game Thursday against the Jets. He is bothered by a lower-body ailment and the team considers Buchnevich day-to-day. The Russian winger has exited the lineup at a very bad time because he was riding a season-best three-game goal streak before getting hurt. Through 20 games in total this season, Buchnevich has collected nine goals and 11 assists. He's the only player on the roster to average at least a point per game in 2022-23, so his absence is a big miss for the team, although you wouldn't say so based on the last game when the Blues scored for fun without Buchnevich in a 7-4 victory over the Islanders.
St. Louis Blues winger Pavel Buchnevich came through with four points in Saturday's 6-2 win over Anaheim, scoring two goals and recording two assists.

The 27-year-old has had a slow start to the campaign, but he has begun to gather steam in recent outings, posting nine of his 11 points during the team's current six-game winning streak. The Blues had a very rough start to the season, but the team has bounced back superbly and Buchnevich isn't the only one on the squad who is benefitting from it.
