Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Nets power-play goal Thursday
Pavel Dorofeyev scored a power-play goal on three shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Lightning.Dorofeyev tallied in the first period, scoring for the second time in three games. He has added 10 shots on net and a minus-1 rating across five appearances this season. He's bounced around the lineup a bit, but his 18:03 of ice time Thursday suggests he's gained a little more trust from head coach Bruce Cassidy. Still, Dorofeyev hasn't quite meshed with Tomas Hertl yet, and with the Vegas Golden Knights being heavily dependent on their top line, Dorofeyev may be a volatile option for fantasy managers early in the campaign.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Lights lamp in Sunday's win
Pavel Dorofeyev scored a goal on five shots and blocked two shots in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Ducks.Dorofeyev has gotten off to a slow start in 2024-25, as his goal Sunday was his first point in three games. He's been listed on the second line but has seen ice time in line with a bottom-six role, and he isn't part of the power-play mix right now. The winger flashed some scoring talent in 2023-24 with 24 points over 47 regular-season outings, but he'll need to find some consistency if he's to stay in the lineup on a regular basis. Dorofeyev's struggles may be partially attributed to the absence of William Karlsson (undisclosed), who was one of the winger's most frequent linemates last year.

Pavel Dorofeyev scored three goals and added an assist in Saturday's 6-5 preseason loss to the Sharks.Dorofeyev scored once in each period and also assisted on an Alexander Holtz tally in the opening frame. Those two wingers were centered by Tomas Hertl and displayed some obvious chemistry in the preseason finale, even as the rest of the Vegas offense was rather quiet. Dorofeyev should be in the lineup to begin 2024-25 after producing 24 points over 47 regular-season contests last season, and he's looking like a breakout candidate.
