Ilya Nabokov (Russian: Илья Набоков, born March 26, 2003) is a Russian professional ice hockey goaltender for Metallurg Magnitogorsk of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL). He is considered a top goaltending prospect eligible for the 2024 NHL entry draft.
Playing career
Nabokov first played hockey at the age of five, traveling 130 kilometers (80 miles) to play. He started play as a skater, but switched to play goal in his second year, in part inspired by seeing Vasily Koshechkin play for the Russian national team. At 12, he was invited to play in Metallurg.[1] He made his Junior Hockey League (MHL) debut with Stalnye Lisy during the 2019–20 season.[2]
In the 2021–22 season, Nabokov was selected to the MHL Challenge Cup event at the 2022 Kontinental Hockey League All-Star Game.[3] In 36 regular season games, he recorded five shutouts and a 2.06 goals against average.[4]
In his Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) debut against Kunlun Red Star on November 29, 2022, his lone KHL appearance in the season, Nabokov played less than five minutes and faced just one shot.[5] In the MHL, he was again selected for the Challenge Cup,and was nominated for the award for best goaltender.[6][7]
Nabokov became a KHL regular in 2023–24, taking on a starter role due to the departure of Eddie Pasquale and recording a .930 save percentage in 43 games.[8][9] His first KHL start came on September 9, 2023, a 4–3 opening night victory over HC Vityaz in which he made 23 saves on 26 shots.[10] His first shutout came on October 17, a 29-save blanking of Avtomobilist Yekaterinburg.[7] In 22 playoff games, Nabokov recorded a .941 save percentage, and in Metallurg's Gagarin Cup finals sweep of Lokomotiv Yaroslavl he allowed only three goals.[11] At 21 years and 32 days, he became the youngest playoff MVP in KHL history, beating the previous record of 23 years and 128 days set by goaltender Ilya Sorokin.[12]
International play
Nabokov played for Russia U20 at the 2022 Future Cup.[13]
