Yegor Alexeyevich Korshkov (born 10 July 1996) is a Russian ice hockey player. He is currently playing with Lokomotiv Yaroslavl of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL).

In the 2016 NHL draft Korshkov was chosen 31st overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs, the highest the team had ever selected a Russian player. Korshkov was scouted out by Evgeny Namestnikov, the same scout who tipped the Leafs off on Nikita Soshnikov a year earlier.[2]
