At 19, Amirov’s sophomore KHL season in 2020-21 showcased his remarkable skills, tallying career-best stats of 39 games, nine goals, and 13 points. His prowess ranked him third among under-20 skaters in the league. In April 2021, he signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Toronto Maple Leafs, taking a step toward North America. However, a brain tumor diagnosis in February 2022 halted his journey, sidelining him for the entire 2022-23 season.

Amirov’s battling spirit, however, remained unbroken. A contract extension with Salavat Yulaev Ufa, as well as a $925,000 cap impact until 2023-24, proved his steadfast commitment. A one-year loan arrangement with the Maple Leafs for the 2023-24 season demonstrated his unrelenting desire to compete at the highest level of ice hockey.
