Anatoli Vladimirovitch Tarasov (Russian: Анатолий Владимирович Тарасов) (10 December 1918 - 23 June 1995, both in Moscow) was an ice hockey coach, styled by Encyclopædia Britannica "the father of Russian hockey", who established the Soviet Union as "the dominant force in international competition". He was one of the first Russians to be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame, having been inducted in 1974 in the builders category. He was also a footballer and football manager, but is best known for his work in developing the USSR's ice hockey program.
