Valery Karpov (born August 5, 1971 in Chelyabinsk, Russia) is a retired ice hockey player who played in the Soviet Hockey League and National Hockey League. He played for Traktor Chelyabinsk and HC CSKA Moscow in Russia before moving to North America.

He returned to Russia in 1997, spending three seasons with Metallurg Magnitogorsk, helping them win the RSL title in 1999. After spells with HC Lada Togliatti and HC Dynamo Moscow, he returned to Metallurg Magnitogorsk in 2001, where he stayed for another four years. He retired in 2005. He was inducted into the Russian and Soviet Hockey Hall of Fame in 1993.
