Playing career
Following the 2021–22 season with Stalnye Lisy in the Russian Junior Hockey League (MHL) in which he scored 17 goals and 64 points in 58 games, Grebenkin was selected 135th overall in the 2022 NHL entry draft by the Toronto Maple Leafs. It was his second year of draft eligibility; he had not been selected the year prior.
Grebenkin and Metallurg Magnitogorsk won the Gagarin Cup in the 2023–24 season. Following the season, he signed an entry-level contract with the Maple Leafs.
After playing his entire career to that point in Russia, Grebenkin moved to North America to join the Toronto Marlies, American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate of the Maple Leafs, for the 2024–25 season. After 13 games, over which he recorded four goals and ten points, he was called up to the Maple Leafs to replace an injured Max Domi, and made his NHL debut on 20 November 2024 in a 3–0 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights.
