Vladimir A. Tkachyov ^[1] (born 5 October 1993) is a Russian professional ice hockey forward for Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL).

Playing career

Tkachyov made his KHL debut playing with Ak Bars Kazan during the 2012–13 KHL season. ^[2] After posting career bests with 15 goals and 32 points with Kazan in the 2016–17 season, Tkachyov warded off NHL interest in agreeing to a new two-year contract extension to continue with the club on May 3, 2017. ^[3]

Following his second season with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl in 2020–21, having served as team captain and collected 10 goals and 28 points through 53 regular season games, Tkachyov left the club as a free agent.

On 3 May 2021, Tkachyov was signed to a two-year contract with his third KHL club, Traktor Chelyabinsk. ^[4]

Tkachyov played four seasons in Chelyabinsk, leaving at the conclusion of his contract after a Gagarin Cup final defeat to Lokomotiv Yaroslavl in the 2025–26 season to sign a two-year deal with HC Sibir Novosibirsk on 6 June 2025. ^[5] He was traded on 25 November to Torpedo Nizhny Novgorod in exchange for Mikhail Abramov, Anton Kosolapov, and cash. ^[6]
