Denis Zernov

Denis Zernov effectively declared himself during the game for the Togliatti Lada. The hockey player, like any other athlete, dreams of playing for the country's Olympic team and going to the NHL, but so far he considers the Gagarin Cup his main goal. Judging by the results Denis shows on the ice, this dream of his is quite achievable.

Denis Igorevich Zernov was born on January 10, 1996 in Izhevsk. However, the hockey player considers himself a Chelyabinsk citizen - his father comes from there. In Izhevsk, the man at the time of his son's birth was serving, and when the boy was one year old, the family returned home.

Hockey interested Denis as a child - at the age of 5 he started playing for the yard team. The father, a big fan of this sport, was pleased with the child's interest and wanted his son to become a professional athlete. Therefore, when the ice melted, they decided to send the boy to a hockey school.

Denis lived in the ChMZ area, and his parents sent him to Traktor, which was located almost at the other end of the city, this school was considered the best. I had to travel by tram with a change, and for the first 3 years I had to carry the uniform with me - the young athletes did not have changing rooms. However, the boy did not have any thoughts to leave the sport: despite the difficulties with the road, he asked for training himself, and how else could the boy treat hockey, above whose bed were posters with Pavel Bure and Wayne Gretzky.

Denis's sports biography began with a failure - he was not taken to the MHL of his own "Tractor". The reason for this was the unsuccessful graduation season at the hockey school. First, the young man broke his arm and was forced to recover for a long time, then he received another injury. By the end of the season, the athlete had only 15 matches for which he scored almost no points.

As a result, all Traktor-1996 graduates became members of the MHL "White Bears" team, and Denis was offered to wait a year and play in the UHL. The year went well, but the young man was not taken to the MHL - graduates born in 1997 went there. He was offered to stay in the Junior Hockey League for another year, and it became clear that the athlete had already been written off.

Denis still remained in the UHL, but in the fall of 2014 he was lucky - the young man was invited to play in Togliatti. Since he clearly did not have a chance in Chelyabinsk, the athlete left without hesitation. From 2015 to 2016, he played in the MHL for the Togliatti Ladya, and for the next 2 years he played for Lada in the Continental Hockey League. His former fellow practitioners in Chelyabinsk could not boast of playing for the KHL at that time, so the failure with Traktor was good for Denis's career.

The last season of playing for Lada turned out to be very successful for the athlete: the hockey player played 56 matches and scored a total of 29 points. This result brought him the title of the best sniper of the club. Outside Togliatti, people also became interested in Denis, which again played into the hands of the young athlete - Lada was expelled from the KHL, but wanted to stay in the Continental League.

Kazan "Ak Bars" and "Avangard" of Omsk claimed the hockey player. As a result, Denis began to play for Omsk, signing a 2-year contract with the team in 2018. In the first season with a new team, the athlete reached the final of the Gagarin Cup, but in the end he still lost the victory to CSKA.

Denis is a young athlete whose main sporting achievements are still ahead. In the meantime, little is known about the hockey player and his personal life. During his school years, he tried to study well, even entered the university. If it hadn't worked out with hockey, Denis, by his own admission, would have become a military man.

The young man loves to eat deliciously (but does not know how to cook), his favorite dishes are French meat and steaks. However, no culinary preferences prevent him from keeping himself in shape: with a height of 176 cm, Denis weighs 79 kg.

In April 2019, information leaked to the Network that the 23-year-old hockey player was dating Olga Buzova, who was 10 years older than the young athlete. Neither the singer nor Denis confirmed the information, and the reason why Internet users came to this conclusion is frankly drawn.

The fact is that Olga came to the match in the Avangard hockey jersey with number 16 - this is how Denis plays.

As for the confirmed information, it is known that the athlete does not yet have a wife and children, but who his girlfriend is and whether she is, the hockey player does not say. There are practically no personal photos on Denis's Instagram either; shots from training and games prevail there.

Now Denis is making a sports career in the "hawks" team, and he shows himself both from the good and from the bad side. In February 2019, the young striker was disqualified for 1 match and fined for an unsuccessful power reception during the game against Admiral. And the victim of Zernov was Stepan Zakharchuk, who once did not neglect the "dirty" game.

At the end of March, the injury was already waiting for Denis himself - he injured his shoulder and was forced to miss the away match in Nur-Sultan. On April 21, 2019, Avangard coach Bob Hartley announced that the athlete's injury was serious and he needed shoulder surgery.

Whether the hockey player will remain in Avangard after the expiration of the contract is still an open question. Denis is in the top three of the team, but Zernov is not on the list of top 15 in terms of salary for 2019 - his salary is 30 million, which is significantly less than that of his colleagues. Sports journalists have speculated that if the young athlete is not paid more, he may leave the club.
