Igor Chernyshov (born 30 November 2005) is a Russian junior ice hockey player who is a winger for the San Jose Sharks of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was selected 33rd overall by the Sharks in the 2024 NHL entry draft.

Playing career
As a youth, Chernyshov developed within Dynamo Moscow of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL).

In the 2022–23 season, Chernyshov led MHC Dynamo Moscow in scoring with 38 points in 38 games. He is one of a small number of Junior Hockey League (MHL) players to record a point-per-game pace in the year before their draft-eligible season. The following year, he split time between the MHL and the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL), recording 13 goals and 28 points in 23 MHL games and four points in 34 KHL games.

In the 2024 NHL entry draft, he was selected with the first pick of the second round, 33rd overall by the San Jose Sharks. After his release from the final season of his contract with Dynamo Moscow, Chernyshov was signed by the Sharks to a three-year, entry-level contract on 1 August 2024. He was then drafted 56th overall in the 2024 CHL import draft by the Saginaw Spirit of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL), with whom he signed a development agreement on 5 August. On 20 August, Chernyshov's agent announced he had undergone a surgical procedure to repair his shoulder.

Chernyshov started the 2025–26 season in the AHL with the San Jose Barracuda. He was recalled from the AHL on 14 December 2025 after injuries to both Will Smith and Philipp Kurashev.
