Pashin was a late-round swing by the Hurricanes and came over to North America in 2022-23 to play with the Chicago Wolves. After the Hurricanes' partnership with the Wolves fell apart this past year Pashin headed back to Russia to play with Spartak Moskova of the KHL.
Pashin reportedly signed an extension with Spartak in the KHL and will pursue his professional career in his homeland.
UPDATE: Pashin is reportedly signing a 3 year deal with Spartak
Only time will tell if Pashin is ever to make the NHL but given the current outlook, the odds seem slim.
