Filipp Metlyuk
Filipp Metlyuk (born December 12, 1981) is a Russian professional ice hockey defenceman who currently plays for Salavat Yulaev Ufa of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL). He has previously played with HC Yugra amongst 5 other KHL clubs.
In February 2009, Kulyash scored his 50th career goal and thus became a member of the "Fetisov Club".
In January 2010, Kulyash was controversially traded to his home-town club Avangard Omsk in return for two other defencemen, Filipp Metlyuk and Evgeny Kurbatov. He went public with his discontent blaming HC CSKA's General Manager Sergei Nemchinov for the trade. However, Kulyash was quick to retreat expressing his delight at joining his native team. The defenceman managed to score against Metallurg Novokuznetsk, his second game in Avangard
