His previous club in Russia was Lokomotiv Yaroslavl, so I visited their site via the link on our Teams/Links sections.
Click on the navigation link on the left that says something like COCTaB (sostav) - that refers to the team - 1st bit of Russian for you there - and you'll see him listed as #30 (shirt numbers in the 3rd column from the left). A bit more Russian: B (a 'v' sound) is the abbreviation for goaltender, what looks like a 3 ('zh' like in Zhitnik) is defenceman, and the H (an 'n') is a forward. He's played 2 games by the look of things, and I'll assume the players whose names are greyed out are no longer with the team - those players have a team listed in their bio which I would assume is where they have gone to. So it looks like he recently arrived in Yaroslavl and is still there.
If you are interested in Russian players, get to learn the basics of Russian including learning the Cyrillic alphabet, you'll find it helps tremendously when browsing their sites.
Having the intuition to play a game like "Where in the world is Carmen Sandiego" helps too ;o)
