Cross the Canadian border after you get the new passport and come back. At the US POE you have to ASK for a new I94.

Thanks for the reply, but is it possible to get the new i94 if I directly go to the POE instead of crossing the border

That may not work. If you have concerns feel free to have a Lawyer assist you. There have been many posts where the OP has just crossed over and made an U-turn back to US Immigration. Inform your employer.
