Rotowire
Zharovsky scored a goal and added an assist in Salavat Yulaev Ufa's 5-3 win over the Shanghai Dragons on Sunday in the KHL.
With the effort, Zharovsky earned a 40-point campaign (15 goals, 25 assists) in 57 appearances. It's been a breakout year for the 19-year-old winger, who is among the better NHL-affiliated prospects currently in the KHL. Ufa will be in the playoffs, so he'll have a chance to keep contributing for a few more weeks.

Zharovsky registered two assists in Salavat Yulaev Ufa's 5-2 loss to Avangard Omsk on Tuesday.

He's up to 13 goals and 22 helpers over 40 appearances this season, while adding 89 shots on net and a plus-6 rating.

Canadiens' Alexander Zharovsky: Two points in KHL loss
Rotowire
Zharovsky scored a goal and added an assist in Salavat Yulaev Ufa's 6-4 loss to Metallurg Magnitogorsk in KHL action Thursday.
Zharovsky has hit the ground running in the KHL, racking up six points over seven contests this season. It's his first taste of regular-season action in the top Russian league after joining Salavat Yulaev's main roster for seven playoff games last year, in which he had one assist. Zharovsky was selected 34th overall by the Canadiens in the 2025 NHL Entry Draft, and he's under contract in the KHL through the 2026-27 season, so it'll likely be a few years before he's an NHL option.
