Artem Anisimov returns to Russia after thirteen seasons in the NHL
After spending thirteen seasons, 771 regular season games in the National Hockey League, Artem Anisimov has returned home to Russia.
The 33-year-old has agreed to terms on a one-year contract with hometown club in the KHL, Lokomotiv Yaroslavl. He spent two seasons with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl from 2005 to 2007, prior to coming over to the NHL. He also played for them during the 2012-13 season when the NHL was in a lockout until January.
Anisimov was attending the Colorado Avalanche's training camp in September on a professional tryout contract, but was released, and didn't make the team's final 23-man roster.
As mentioned, he played in 13 career seasons in the NHL with the New York Rangers, Columbus Blue Jackets, Chicago Blackhawks, and Ottawa Senators. In those 771 regular season games, Anisimov had 376 points (180 G, 196 A), 214 penalty minutes, and was a -17.
