Playing career

During the 2010–11 KHL season, Apalkov played eight games with Metallurg Magnitogorsk in the KHL. During the 2013–14 season, on December 24, 2013, Apalkov was signed to a four-year contract extension to remain with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl.^[1]

Apalkov played eight seasons with Lokomotiv, and while in his final season under contract in 2019–20, he split the campaign between Yaroslavl and Dynamo Moscow. With the playoffs cancelled after completion of the first-round due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Apalkov left the club as a free agent.^[2]

On 15 May 2020, Apalkov joined his fourth KHL club, agreeing to a one-year contract with HC Sochi.^[3]

As a free agent from Sochi, Apalkov returned to original club, Metallurg Magnitogorsk, on a one-year deal on 8 August 2021.^[4]
