Description

Ilya Nikolaevich Lyubushkin (Russian: Илья Николаевич Любушкин; born 6 April 1994) is a Russian professional ice hockey defenceman for the Dallas Stars of the National Hockey League (NHL).

Playing career
Lyubushkin made his Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) debut playing with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl during the 2012–13 KHL season.

He played his first five professional seasons with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl before opting as a free agent following the 2017–18 season, to sign a one-year, two-way contract with the Arizona Coyotes of the National Hockey League (NHL) on 23 May 2018.

In his debut season in North America in the 2018–19 season, Lyubushkin remained on the Coyotes roster for the duration of the year, adding a defensive physical presence. He registered 4 assists in 41 games while finishing fourth on the team and third among all NHL rookies with 150 hits. On 14 June 2019, Lyubushkin was re-signed to a one-year contract to continue with the Arizona Coyotes.

As a restricted free agent, Lyubushkin returned for a third season with the Coyotes by agreeing to a one-year, $1 million contract extension on 5 October 2020. He was later returned on loan by the Coyotes to join former club, Lokomotiv Yaroslavl, until the commencement of NHL training camp on 28 October 2020.

On July 2, 2024 he signed a three year deal with Dallas.
