Viktor Tikhonov is heading back to the KHL.
The Arizona Coyotes forward reached terms with St. Petersburg SKA, marking his third stint in the Russian League.
Tikhonov played for St. Petersburg from 2011-2015 before joining the Chicago Blackhawks last season.
Arizona claimed the 28-year-old from Chicago last December, and the former first-round pick recorded three goals and three assists in 39 contests.
