Signed a two-year extension with Avangard Omsk of the KHL in May of 2026.
Extends with KHL team
Gulyayev signed a two-year extension with Avangard Omsk of the KHL on Friday, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports.
ANALYSIS
Gulyayev's new deal would keep him in the KHL through the end of the 2027-28 campaign, at which point he would be 23 years old. Rawal notes the defenseman has little interest in developing in the AHL, so this may be the next best path for him to continue to grow. Fantasy managers in dynasty formats will have to wait two more years to see if he'll be able to help the Avalanche down the line.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Arriving in 2026?
Gulyayev could be ready to play for the Avalanche in 2026-27, Aarif Deen of Colorado Hockey Now reports Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Gulyayev is entering the last year of his contract with the KHL's Avangard Omsk. He has earned a total of 28 points over 144 regular-season games for Avangard across the last three years while also seeing time with the organization's minor-league and junior affiliates. The 31st overall pick in 2023 is a creative passer and a smooth skater. Still, his performance in the KHL so far indicates he won't make an immediate fantasy impact even if his NHL debut comes this spring, but the Avalanche have few prospects in the pipeline.
