Due to injuries to the Rangers lineup, Goodrow began the 2022–23 season alternating between fourth-line center and third-line winger. He played one game as the Ranger's fourth-line centre between Reaves and Dryden Hunt but spent five games on the left wing of Filip Chytil. Following an injury to Chytil in late October, Goodrow reassumed the centre position on the Ranger's third line.{{cite news |last1=Brooks |first1=Larry |title=The Rangers' issues show up in one lineup pillar being forced out of his best spot |url=https://nypost.com/2022/10/25/rangers-lack-depth-centers-for-third-and-fourth-lines/ |access-date=October 28, 2023 |publisher=New York Post |date=October 25, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221025122834/https://nypost.com/2022/10/25/rangers-lack-depth-centers-for-third-and-fourth-lines/ |archive-date=October 25, 2022}} Through December, Goodrow continued to move up and down the lineup while playing on both his left and right side.
