Yesterday, we pointed out the fishery of the History of Artemi Panarin. While any history of domestic violence / sexual assault deserves a deeper look, the circumstances surrounding it don’t quite add up from the start. One, the claim came from a declared political enemy of Panarin in former coach Andrei Nazarov, not from the victim himself. Given the political alignments of all parties, and what happens to sincere critics of Vladimir Putin, whether on the part of Putin himself or his comrades, everything deserved a mocking look. The details they wanted did not help their cause, nor did some facts align.

It seems to be the case even more so today. Slava Malamud, which is all about news about Russian hockey players or Russian hockey players, has a couple of threads describing the problems in history and some new current details that eliminate their stability.

Details that are not agreed upon: Panarin’s teammates respond to the claims, the wrong currency is mentioned and the team’s travel schedule that does not align with Nazarov’s story, seems to remain behind the fact that Nazarov is a loner. It looks like Don Cherry’s version in Russia, except that instead of limiting himself to seven minutes of television a week, as Cherry did, Nazarov has noted his popularity and belligerence in his posts. work and influence.

Besides, journalists in Latvia I don’t seem to find any police or nightclub workers in question to corroborate the story. It should also be noted that the tabloid in which Nazarov’s story appeared, Komsomolskaya Pravda, has a reputation for being a state support cloth for the truly lost. Highlights of the past include a front – page story that The US was responsible for the Charlie Hebdo shooting. Most reputable newspapers in the country would not work for lack of plausibility.

This is far from over, as Panarin was fired for some reason, though it was likely out of fear for his family in Russia. It seems that Nazarov is not the type to remove anything, nor the tabloid that worked with it.
