Chernykh Dmitry Aleksandrovich - a famous Russian hockey player, who plays for the club “Toros”. Plays on the forward position.
Childhood and youth
Dmitry Chernykh was born in the winter of 1985. A guy in the family was written to become a hockey player. The fact is that his father is the famous Soviet hockey player Chernykh Alexander, who has achieved considerable success over his career.
The young man early began to play hockey and in the early years he stood out for his complexion against the background of his peers. Dmitry predicted a successful career, some predicted much greater success than those that his father managed to achieve.
The first club of the athlete was a team from his native Voskresensk - “Chemist”. Black received many advances from coaches and at the age of sixteen he began to be involved in games for the first team. The debut for him will be the season of 2001-2002, in the first part of which the young man will play seven fights, but will not be able to score effective actions. In the middle of the season, the athlete will be sent to the backup team, where he will show high performance - 15 points on the goal + pass system.
He begins the next season as an irregular player in the main squad. In total, Dmitry will play twenty-nine fights, throw five goals and be able to give four passes. At the end of this season, he will go to the World Youth Championship, where he will be able to prove himself well. Joining the world championship will not go unnoticed - the hockey player is invited to Moscow CSKA.
Professional career
When Chernykh Dmitry went to the camp of Muscovites, he was only seventeen years old. Despite his young age, the athlete will play the season pretty well. For the first team, Dmitry will hold forty-six matches and earn eighteen points in the goal + pass system (10 + 8). From time to time he will be involved in games for the second team, for which he will hold five fights, score one goal and will assist partners twice. Despite decent performance, given the age of Dmitry, the army leadership decides to part with him. The player goes to Chelyabinsk Mechel, but here he begins to have serious problems with performance: in twenty-two games - just one puck and five assists.
The season 2005-2006, the hockey player will play for two teams. The first half is for the Southern Urals, and the second for Chemist. Unfortunately, the player will not be noted for anything special, but he will show himself well in the composition of Chemist - thirty-one games and twelve productive actions (5 + 7). At the end of this season, the athlete goes overseas.
American footprint
Like many Russian hockey players, Chernykh Dmitry tried to play in the USA at an early stage of his career. He moved to the Dayton Bomber Club. At first, everything turned out pretty well, the hockey player played in the first team, but then luck turned away from him again. By the end of the season, he had only thirty-seven fights and nine productive episodes. After the season ended, Cherny returned to his homeland and tried to gain a foothold in one of the teams.
Return from the USA. Unfulfilled hopes
Dmitry Chernykh spends the 2007-2008 season at once in three teams: Nizhnekamsk Neftekhimik, HC Ryazan and Tyumen Gazovik. As part of Ryazan, he played well, gaining fifteen points in twenty-two fights. In other teams, the athlete showed nothing.
After a successful career in HC Ryazan, the club wanted to get a player on an ongoing basis. The 2008-2009 season will be the best in Dmitry’s professional career: he will play sixty-four matches in the championship, score twenty-four goals and give twenty-five assists. He will also hold eight games in the playoffs and here he will show his best side (4 + 7). At that moment, it would seem that the striker really opened up, and now his game will always be delighted, but it turned out not quite like that.
After a successful season of Chernykh, Dmitry transferred to Lada from Tolyatti, where he spent a season and a half, but did not gain much fame. In the middle of the 2010-2011 championship, the athlete moves to Moscow, to the Wings of the Soviets team. He played pretty well for six months and returned to the Ryazan HC. This time he was not as successful as before as part of this club, and after some time the athlete changes his team again and moves to Neftyanik from Almetyevsk.
The 2012-2013 season is held at a good level by Dmitry Chernykh. The hockey player played fifty-one duel in Metallurg from Novokuznetsk and earned twenty points. The next year he moves to Spartak Moscow, where he did not remember anything except one assist.
Today he plays for Toros from Neftekamsk.
Career Team
Dmitry was not involved in the games for the main national team of Chernykh and was never even a candidate. Managed to play for the youth team of the country and for the "youth team".
In 2000, he played for the youth team of Russia at an international tournament. He spent three fights and scored one goal.
In 2002, he played at the World Championship among youth teams. He spent six games, threw four goals and made one assists. A very good game then showed Dmitry Chernykh (hockey player). Photos from that tournament spread around a lot of sports media.
Comparison with father
Almost throughout the career of Dmitry compared with his father. However, as some experts note, such comparisons are inappropriate, because their careers have occurred in completely different eras.
Alexander Chernykh is a world champion and an Olympic champion; his son has not yet been able to achieve such successes.
