Maxim Zyuzyakin (born January 13, 1991) is a Russian professional ice hockey player who is currently playing with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl in the Kontinental Hockey League.[citation needed]
Zyuzyakin was the only rostered member of the team not aboard the 2011 Lokomotiv Yaroslavl air disaster. He had been asked by head coach Brad McCrimmon to stay behind in Yaroslavl to rest and meet with the team in Moscow for their next scheduled game against Spartak, which was never played however as Lokomotiv Yaroslavl cancelled their participation in the 2011–12 KHL season.[1][2] Lokomotiv Yaroslavl instead participated in the second division of Russian ice hockey, the Russian Major League (VHL). The only surviving player, Zyuzyakin was named captain of Lokomotiv Yaroslavl for the 2011-12 season season in the VHL.[citation needed]
