Artemi Panarin Reaches Historic Milestone

Artemi Panarin has reached a milestone that not many players get to in their career.

In the New York Rangers’ 6-1 loss to the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday night, Artemi Panarin recorded his 800th career point.

Panarin now becomes the only active undrafted player to collect his 800 points while also becoming the 33rd undrafted player to ever reach the mark.

The 33-year-old is coming off of his best statistical season where he recorded 49 goals, 71 assists and 120 points.

Panarin has also played with the Chicago Blackhawks and Columbus Blue Jackets, but he signed a seven-year, $81.5 million contract with the Rangers in 2019 and he’s been with the organization ever since.

Now, the superstar forward is on pace for another monster season as he already has tallied nine goals, 10 assists and 19 points in just 12 games.
