Sergei Viktorovich Fyodorov (Серге́й Викторович Фёдоров; born December 13, 1969) is a Russian former professional ice hockey player and the former head coach of CSKA Moscow of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) from 2021 to 2024.[1] During his playing career, for which he is best known for his 13 seasons with the Detroit Red Wings, Fedorov was primarily a centre, but occasionally played as a winger or defenceman.
Fedorov was one of the first hockey players to defect from his native Soviet Union in order to play in the National Hockey League (NHL). While playing with Detroit, he won the Stanley Cup three times, as well as the Hart Memorial Trophy as the NHL's most valuable player in 1994. After leaving the Red Wings in the summer of 2003, Fedorov played stints with the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim, Columbus Blue Jackets and Washington Capitals before retiring from the NHL in 2009. He played in over 1,200 NHL games and scored 483 goals in the NHL. He is a three-time Olympian, the first European-trained player to win the Hart Trophy and is considered to be one of the best playoff performers in NHL history.[2][3][4] In 2017, Fedorov was named one of the "100 Greatest NHL Players" in history.[5]
Fedorov was considered one of the best players in the world from the 1990s to the early 2000s.[6] He last played for Metallurg Magnitogorsk of the KHL, where he was made captain in early September 2011.[7] He was also an ambassador for Russia at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi.[8] Fedorov was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame on November 9, 2015,[9] and to the International Ice Hockey Federation Hall of Fame in 2016.[10]
