Among team defensemen, he ranked first in power play goals (four), tied for first in goals (six) and was second in scoring with 25 points. In addition, Tyutin picked up one assist along with four penalty minutes in eight games for Team Russia at the 2006 Olympic Games in Turin, Italy.

On 2 August 2006, Tyutin signed a two-year contract extension with the New York Rangers.
