Playing career edit

Pashnin never signed a contract with the Rangers, opting to remain in Russia, signing a two-year contract extension with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl on 7 April 2015.[2]

In the 2018–19 season, his fifth within CSKA Moscow, Pashnin as a regular on the blueline appeared in 42 regular season games for 5 points. He made 6 post-season appearances to help CSKA capture their first Gagarin Cup.

On 1 June 2019, Pashnin left CSKA as a free agent, signing a one-year contract with his third KHL club, Salavat Yulaev Ufa.[3] In the 2019–20 season, Pashnin appeared in 54 regular season games from the blueline, finishing a point shy of previous career highs with 10. He registered 2 assists in Salavat's opening round defeat of Avangard Omsk before the remainder of the playoffs were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

As a free agent from Salavat, Pashnin again moved to sign a two-year contract with Metallurg Magnitogorsk on 7 May 2020.[4]

Upon completion of his contract with Magnitogorsk, Pashnin signed a two-year contract with his fifth KHL club, SKA Saint Petersburg, on 9 May 2022.[5]
