He played one game for the Kings in the 2005–06 NHL season and earned an assist; he split the 2006–07 NHL season with the Manchester Monarchs of the American Hockey League and the Kings. Pushkaryov scored his first NHL goal on January 8, 2007, against the Edmonton Oilers.{{cite web|url=http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/recap?gameId=270108008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110524205251/http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/recap?gameId=270108008|url-status=dead|archive-date=May 24, 2011|title=Oilers defeat Kings 2–1 in OT|publisher=ESPN|date=January 8, 2007|accessdate=October 21, 2008}}
