New York Rangers star Artemiy Panarin has been fined $5,000 — the maximum allowable under the CBA — for unsportsmanlike conduct during yesterday’s game against the Boston Bruins. In this case, unsportsmanlike conduct means throwing a glove at Brad Marchand who allegedly crossed a line with his chirping.
