Fedor Viktorovich Fedorov (Russian: Фёдор Викторович Фёдоров, Fyodor Viktorovich Fyodorov; born June 11, 1981, in Apatity, Soviet Union) is a Russian professional ice hockey forward, most recently of the New Jersey Devils organization. He is the younger brother of Sergei Fedorov.
Originally drafted by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the 6th round (182nd overall) in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft, he re-entered the NHL draft in 2001 and was drafted by the Vancouver Canucks in the 3rd round (66th overall). He played 15 NHL games with the Vancouver Canucks, and 116 games with the Manitoba Moose, the minor league affiliate of the Canucks.
On October 7, 2005, the Canucks traded Fedorov to the New York Rangers for Jozef Balej and a 6th-round pick in 2008. He managed to play just 3 games for the Rangers, playing mostly with the Hartford Wolf Pack.
On July 25, 2006, he signed with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl of the Russian Super League. Later in the 2006–2007 season, he signed with the Malmö Redhawks of Swedish Elitserien.
On July 4, 2008, Fedorov signed an NHL contract with the New Jersey Devils. Fedorov did not make the Devils' NHL roster; after choosing not to report to AHL affiliate Lowell, he was released by the team.[1]
On October 22, 2008, Fedorov signed with HC Nizhnekamsk Neftekhimik of the newly formed Russian Kontinental Hockey League.
