Dmitri Aleksandrovich Chernykh (Russian: Дмитрий Александрович Черных; born February 27, 1985) is a Russian former professional ice hockey forward who played in the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL).[1] He was drafted 48th overall in the 2003 NHL Entry Draft by the New York Islanders and is the son of former Soviet hockey player Alexander Chernykh.[2]
Chernykh developed in the Khimik Voskresensk hockey system, the club his father also played for. He was a member of Russia's U18 national team, but struggled to make the U20 squad in the following years. Chernykh has primarily spent time skating in Russia's second- and third-tier leagues, struggling to break back into the KHL.
He played one season of hockey in North America for the Dayton Bombers during the 2006–07 season before returning to Russia.
