Alexander Perezhogin ( _ru. Александр Пережогин) is a Kazakh-born Russian professional ice hockey player with Salavat Yulaev Ufa of the Russian Super League. Perezhogin was born in Ust-Kamenogorsk, Soviet Union, in what is today Kazakhstan, on August 10, 1983.

Playing career

He was drafted by Montreal in the first round of the 2001 NHL Entry Draft 25th overall. In the 2003 season Perezhogin came to North America to play with the Hamilton Bulldogs, Montreal's AHL affiliate. He played with the Montreal Canadiens for two seasons.

During Perezhogin's suspension from the AHL from his stick swinging incident of Garrett Stafford, on the advice of Bob Gainey and the Montreal Canadiens, re-joined his former team Omsk Avangard of the Russian Super League and scored 33 points in 43 games. In total, Perezhogin tallied 55 points in 95 games in his career with Omsk Avangard.

He scored his first NHL goal on a break-away in his first career game, on October 6 2005 at Madison Square Garden versus the New York Rangers on goaltender Kevin Weekes.

On May 8, 2007, Perezhogin signed a contract with Salavat Yulayev Ufa in the Russian Super League. Perezhogin will earn nearly $1.8 million US, almost three times his NHL salary for last season. The Montreal Canadiens still hold his NHL rights as he is a restricted free-agent.

tick swinging incident

During the 2004 Calder Cup playoffs against the Cleveland Barons, Perezhogin was cross-checked in the face by Garrett Stafford with both players falling to the ice. While both were trying to get back up, Stafford swung his stick at Perezhogin's head making contact with his helmet. In response, while getting up, Perezhogin turned around and swung his stick low and caught Stafford who was still getting up, in the face.

The blow knocked Stafford unconscious with convulsions, twenty stitches, the loss of teeth and a concussion. He was released the next day from Hamilton General Hospital and has since made a full recovery. Perezhogin was suspended for the rest of the playoffs, and in an unprecedented move for the entire following AHL season of 2004–05. Perezhogin was also charged by Hamilton police, and was given a one year probation and ordered to donate $5,000 to charity, and to cover Stafford's medical bills.
