Boris Mikhailov played for Saratov as an eighteen-year-old, three years before the club took the name it still carries.
Nobody has come close to Sergey Zhibrov's 265 goals for the club, and the single-season mark still belongs to Viktor Osokin, who scored 50 in 1980/81.
The Super League quarter-final of 1997 remains the club's high-water mark in the post-Soviet game. Since then, life has been spent in the lower tiers, most recently the VHL-B, where two runner-up finishes in 2021 and 2022 and a bronze in 2023 have kept Kristall competitive without lifting it back toward the top flight.
