On January 18th, 2022 Zibanejad was voted to his first All-Star game through the NHL “Last Men In” fan vote. However, he decided not to attend for personal reasons.

Zibanejad carried an eight-game point streak into the Eastern Conference Finals versus the Tampa Bay Lightning, but it ended in Game 4 and the Rangers were eliminated in six games.

For the 2022–23 season, Zibanejad once again began the season as the Rangers top centre. On October 17th, 2022, Zibanejad had two goals and four points in a 6–4 win over the Anaheim Ducks.

He finished the season with a team-leading 39 goals and second on the team with 91 points. The Rangers faced the Devils in the first round of the 2023 Stanley Cup playoffs. Facing elimination in Game 6, the Rangers coach moved Vladimir Tarasenko to the first line with Zibanejad and Kreider. Zibanejad scored a goal and had two points to keep the season alive. However, the Devils eliminated the Rangers in the next game
