Arthur Kaliyev (Russian: Артур Калиев; born June 26, 2001) is an Uzbekistan-born American professional ice hockey forward for the Los Angeles Kings of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was drafted 33rd overall by the Kings in the second round of the 2019 NHL Entry Draft.[1] He made his NHL debut in 2021.
Kaliyev was born in Uzbekistan but his family moved to Staten Island, New York when he was two years old and later moved to Michigan at age 13.[2][3] He represents the United States in international competition.[2] His sister Elvina Kalieva is a tennis player.[4]
As a rookie in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) in 2017–18 he scored 31 goals to help the Hamilton Bulldogs to a league championship.[5] He followed that up with 51 goals for the Bulldogs in 2018–19, becoming the youngest player in the OHL to score more than 40 goals that season.[5] He is particularly effective at shooting a one timer.[6] Despite his goal scoring prowess, he was regarded as inconsistent, a weak skater and a weak defender, which may have hurt his standing in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft.[7][8][9][10][11]
On June 3, 2020, Kaliyev was signed to a three-year, entry-level by the Los Angeles Kings.[12] Kaliyev made his NHL debut on February 2, 2021, against the Anaheim Ducks and scored his first goal.[13]
