Playing career

Pushkaryov was drafted in the second round of the 2003 NHL Entry Draft by the Los Angeles Kings, but was traded to the Dallas Stars late in the 2006–07 NHL season in the deal involving former Kings captain Mattias Norström. He played one game for the Kings in the 2005–06 NHL season and earned an assist; he split the 2006–07 NHL season with the Manchester Monarchs of the American Hockey League and the Kings. Pushkaryov scored his first NHL goal on January 8, 2007, against the Edmonton Oilers.[1]

Pushkaryov later signed with Metallurg Magnitogorsk of the KHL, before returning to the AHL's Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins for the 2009–10 season. Prior to the start of the 2010–11 season, Pushkaryov joined Barys Astana of the KHL.

Pushkaryov played 8 seasons with Barys Astana before leaving as a free agent in signing a one-year contract with HK Kurbads of the Latvian Hockey League on December 20, 2018.[2]

Pushkaryov was named to the Kazakhstan men's national ice hockey team for competition at the 2014 IIHF World Championship.[3]
