On 18 February 2022, Ovchinnikov signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Toronto Maple Leafs of the National Hockey League (NHL) and was immediately assigned to the Toronto Marlies, the American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate of the Maple Leafs.

In advance of the 2022–23 season, Ovchinnikov was returned to continue his development with Sibir Novosibirsk on loan from the Maple Leafs on 19 August 2022. Appearing in all 68 regular season games with Sibir Novosibirsk, he established new offensive highs with five goals and eight assists for 13 points.
