Kathy Willens/Associated Press New York Rangers winger Artemi Panarin returned to practice Wednesday for the first time since taking personal leave from the NHL team on Feb. 22. ESPN s Emily Kaplan reported Panarin stepped away from the club indefinitely after Andrei Nazarov, his former coach with the KHL s Chekhov Vityaz, alleged he was involved in a physical altercation with a woman in Latvia a decade ago. The Rangers described the allegation as clearly an intimidation tactic being used against [Panarin] for being outspoken on recent political events in his native Russia. The KHL said it received no information about an incident involving Panarin as described by Nazarov and the NHL hasn t acted on the allegation because of the lack of corroborating evidence, per Kaplan.
