Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Signs one-year contract
Dorofeyev signed a one-year, $825,000 contract with the Golden Knights on Wednesday.
Dorofeyev produced seven goals and two assists over 18 contests at the NHL level last season. The bulk of his appearances came in March and April, which suggests he could have an inside edge for a roster spot on Opening Night. The 22-year-old winger is likely to be limited to a bottom-six role when in Vegas' lineup in 2023-24.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Steps up after being scratched
Dorofeyev scored two goals in Vegas' 4-3 shootout victory over Minnesota on Monday.
It was a nice statement game from Dorofeyev after the Golden Knights scratched him Saturday. He even found the back of the net in the shootout, though that third marker doesn't count towards his season totals. Dorofeyev's up to seven goals and nine points in 13 outings in 2022-23.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Nets power-play marker
Dorofeyev scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Oilers.
Dorofeyev has yet to go more than a game without a goal during his current call-up. He put the Golden Knights ahead 2-1 in the first period of Saturday's game. The 22-year-old is up to five goals, two assists, 23 shots on net and a plus-3 rating through 10 outings this season, with all of his offense coming in his last seven appearances.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Nets game-winner Tuesday
Dorofeyev scored a goal on three shots, went plus-2 and added two PIM in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Canucks.
For the fourth time in five games during his current stint with the big club, Dorofeyev found the back of the net. The 22-year-old has six points in that span, and he's added 18 shots on net and a plus-3 rating through eight contests overall. Dorofeyev is making it very tough to imagine he'll exit the lineup once the Golden Knights get Nicolas Roy (lower body) and Keegan Kolesar (upper body) back from injuries.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Seizing opportunity
Dorofeyev scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
The 22-year-old winger helped set up Phil Kessel in the first period for a tap-in goal. Dorofeyev then potted a slick tally himself from in close in the second, taking the puck out of the corner and shifting from backhand to forehand as he glided toward the front of the net before tucking it behind Daniil Tarasov. Dorofeyev has three goals and five points in four games since being promoted from AHL Henderson, and he hasn't looked out of place in a top-six role for Vegas.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Scores Tuesday
Dorofeyev scored a goal on two shots in a 5-3 win over Philadelphia on Tuesday.
Dorofeyev opened the scoring in the first period, putting a puck on the top shelf from the edge of the crease. The 22-year-old winger now has three points (two goals and an assist) in his last two games after recording his first two NHL points Sunday in St. Louis. Dorofeyev, a third-round pick in 2019, offers some intriguing offensive potential. He may be worth a flier while playing alongside William Karlsson and Reilly Smith on Vegas' second line.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Grabs two points in win
Dorofeyev tallied a goal and an assist in Sunday's 5-3 victory over St. Louis.
Dorofeyev made an impact in his first game since Dec. 28. He picked up an assist, his first NHL point, on William Karlsson's opening tally in the first period. Dorofeyev then potted the game-winner for his first NHL goal in the third, when a rebound bounced off his visor and past Jordan Binnington. The 22-year-old winger played well alongside Karlsson and Reilly Smith on Vegas' second line, potentially earning an extended look in the lineup. Dorofeyev has posted nine goals and eight assists in 32 games with AHL Henderson this season.
