He pleaded not guilty to all charges in August and is scheduled to appear in court Oct. 31.The Sabres struggled before and after Kanes injury in the opener. They were not only without Eichel but also forward Kyle Okposo (bruised knee) and defenseman Dmitry Kulikov (back), two offseason acquisitions expected to play significant roles this season.Okposo and Kulikov both practiced Friday and will likely return during Buffalos upcoming four-game road trip, which starts Sunday at Edmonton.Eichel said Friday he does not want to rush his return. The second-year star spoke following practice, using a scooter to move around the locker room with his left foot in a stabilizing boot.High ankle sprains are tricky injuries, Eichel said. You just want to let everything heal and just go about the whole process the right way and take it day by day and listen to the trainers, listen to the doctors. Really, its a lot about patience and sticking to your game plan.He will wear the stabilizing boot for about 10 days and then have his ankle evaluated.Patience is important for this, he said. Its a long season, you dont want to rush back and then see yourself out again.The injury occurred with less than 10 minutes remaining in Wednesdays practice when he became entangled with a defenseman and his leg buckled.Its a bad bounce, but hockeys a physical game and injuries are part of it, he said. So more than anything its how you handle it and how you return.Eichel was selected with the No. 2 pick in the 2015 draft. He is coming off a solid rookie season in which he had 24 goals and 32 assists in 81 games last year.

LAS VEGAS -- Claressa Shields didnt feel at her best, but her pro debut was a winning one anyway.The two-time Olympic gold medalist won a decision Saturday over Franchon Crews in a four-round super middleweight fight, making the transition to the pros after the most successful amateur career for an American woman.Shields came back from a slow first round to land the bigger punches in an entertaining fight on the undercard of the Sergey Kovalev-Andrew Ward light heavyweight title fight on the Las Vegas Strip.Its not what I wanted but to be called on, last minute, for a fight of this magnitude, Shields said. I am proud of myself. We will fight again in the future.Both women were fighting without headgear for the first time but it didnt seem to be a factor as they traded punches freely before a sparse but appreciative crowd. Shields won all four rounds on the scorecards of the three ringside judges.Shields, who became the first American woman to win a gold medal in the 2012 Olympics and added another in Rio in August, had vowed to be impressive in her first pro fight. And she wasnt shyy about trading punches with Franchon, a Baltimore fighter who lost to her during the Olympic trials in 2012.ddddddddddddShields was pushed to the canvas twice by Crews, who started strong but seemed to tire quickly.It feels so good to have just made my pro debut, she said. This is what Ive been training for. Im faster and I hit harder.Shields, from Flint, Michigan, weighed 167 pounds to 168 for Crews.The 21-year-old Shields said she plans to fight up to 10 times in her first year as a pro. Her goal is to one day headline a pay-per-view card of her own.I believe 150 percent in my boxing ability, she said before the fight. I know Im a great fighter. I fight better than 90 percent of the men who box now. I just know that, and Im not at my best yet.Womens boxing has largely been a fringe sport in recent years, and women have rarely appeared on televised cards. While the fight was on the undercard of Kovalev-Ward, it wasnt a part of the pay-per-view telecast.
