Gleb Trikozov (Russian: Глеб Трикозов, born August 12, 2004) is a Russian professional ice hockey forward for the Carolina Hurricanes of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was drafted in the second round, 60th overall, by the Hurricanes in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft.

Playing career[edit]

Trikozov played in Russia's Junior Hockey League (MHL) in the 2020–21 season, recording 15 goals and 31 points with Omskie Yastreby. In April 2021, Trikozov signed a three-year contract with Avangard Omsk of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL), his junior club's senior-level affiliate.[1]

Trikozov split the 2021–22 season between the MHL and the Supreme Hockey League (VHL), the second tier of Russian professional hockey. He appeared in 35 MHL games, recording 23 goals and 45 points. In the VHL, he appeared in 11 games for Omskie Krylia [ru], Avangard's farm club.[2] In the 2022 Kharlamov Cup playoffs, Trikozov and Omskie Yastreby made it to the semifinals.[3]

Entering the 2022 NHL Entry Draft, Trikozov's skating, shot, and high upside led him to be projected as a selection in the late first or early second round. He fell slightly compared to these projections, being selected in the second round, 60th overall, by the Carolina Hurricanes, Carolina's first selection of the draft.[4]

In the 2022–23 season, Trikozov played mostly at the MHL level, although he also appeared in the VHL and in one KHL game.[3] He split his time between the three leagues in the 2023–24 season as well, appearing in two KHL games. On April 5, 2024, Trikozov and Avangard mutually terminated his contract. The following day, he signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Hurricanes.[5]
