Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Pots lone goal in loss
Dorofeyev scored a power-play goal on three shots in Saturday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Kraken.
Dorofeyev is up to five goals and 12 shots on net through three games this season. He's scored four of those goals with the man advantage. While he's no Alex Ovechkin, Dorofeyev is emerging as one of the most reliable goal scorers in fantasy early in 2025-26. He'll slow down at some point, but the Golden Knights' offense is strong and deep, so he should still find plenty of ways to get involved throughout the campaign.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Ripples twine again
Dorofeyev scored a power-play goal on four shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Sharks.
Dorofeyev is poised to be a menace to opposing teams as the finisher on the Golden Knights' top power-play unit, at least until they find a way to shut him down. He's already got four goals (three on the power play) over two contests this season while adding nine shots on net. The 24-year-old's third-line role at even strength isn't a concern -- he's a gifted scorer in a deep offense and will get plenty of looks, especially against defenses that lack the resources to match Vegas' depth.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Posts hat trick in opener
Dorofeyev scored three goals, including two on the power play, in Wednesday's 6-5 shootout loss to the Kings.
Dorofeyev scored all three goals in the second period to help the Golden Knights erase an early 2-0 deficit. The 24-year-old winger is picking up right where he left off after a 35-goal, 52-point effort in the 2024-25 regular season. He's doing it from a middle-six role for now, but the Vegas offense can easily roll three scoring lines. He'll have high-end potential as long as he's on the top power-play unit, which is where he scored 13 of his goals last year. Dorofeyev may have flown under the radar in fantasy after battling a lower-body injury during the preseason, but he won't linger on the waiver wire for long if he continues to score regularly.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Cleared to play Wednesday
Dorofeyev (lower body) is available for Wednesday's Opening Night matchup against the Kings, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Dorofeyev was officially labeled a game-time decision for Wednesday's regular-season opener, but head coach Bruce Cassidy indicated Tuesday that he expected the 24-year-old to play. Dorofeyev led the Golden Knights with 35 goals last year, and he also racked up 17 assists, 37 blocked shots, 30 PIM and 28 hits while averaging 16:32 of ice time across 82 regular-season appearances. He'll serve in a middle-six capacity to begin the 2025-26 campaign and should see plenty of work with the man advantage once again this year after he averaged a career-high 2:10 of power-play ice time last season.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Game-time call for Wednesday
Dorofeyev (lower body) will be a game-time decision for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Kings, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Dorofeyev participated in Tuesday's practice and is likely to receive clearance to return to the lineup after missing some time during the preseason. He compiled 35 goals, 52 points and 254 shots on net across 82 regular-season appearances in 2024-25. Dorofeyev will likely occupy a middle-six role and could see time on the top power-play combination this campaign.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Offically ruled out Friday
Dorofeyev (lower body) will miss the preseason finale versus the Sharks on Friday, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Dorofeyev was on the ice Friday but won't be in the lineup for the Knights. While the team hasn't offered a firm recovery timeline yet, the fact that he is back on the ice could clear the way for the winger to suit up in the season opener versus Los Angeles on Wednesday.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Making progress in recovery
Dorofeyev (lower body) will not play in Tuesday's exhibition matchup versus the Avalanche, per Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
Head coach Bruce Cassidy relayed Monday that Dorofeyev is progressing in his recovery from a lower-body injury, but he isn't sure if the left-shot winger will draw into the lineup Wednesday against the Avalanche or Friday versus the Sharks. The Golden Knights open the regular season against the Kings on Oct. 8.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Ruled out Friday
Dorofeyev (lower body) skated Thursday but won't be in the lineup to face the Sharks on Friday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Dorofeyev is coming off a career year with the Knights last season in which he generated 35 goals, 17 helpers and 17 power-play points in 82 games -- all of which were career highs. With the addition of Mitch Marner, the 24-year-old Dorofeyev could find himself dropped to a third-line role, which may limit his chances of repeating these numbers in 2025-26.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Sustains LBI in preseason play
Dorofeyev won't return to Tuesday's preseason game versus the Kings due to a lower-body injury, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Dorofeyev can be considered day-to-day for now. The 24-year-old winger could be brought back cautiously during the preseason, leaving his status for Thursday's game versus the Mammoth and Friday's contest versus the Sharks in question. When healthy, Dorofeyev is projected for a middle-six role in 2025-26.

Following a three-game absence, Dorofeyev will return to the second line and second power-play unit. He has earned one goal, an assist and 18 shots on net across five outings this postseason. Dorofeyev will replace Brandon Saad (lower body) in Saturday's lineup versus the Oilers.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Traveling with team
Dorofeyev (undisclosed) will travel with the team to Edmonton ahead of Game 3, according to Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal on Friday.
Dorofeyev has missed three straight postseason outings and should be considered a game-time decision Saturday in Game 3. Dorofeyev had 35 goals and 17 assists across 82 regular-season appearances and had one goal and one assist in five playoff games before the injury. Look for Dorofeyev to return to the top line, alongside Jack Eichel and Mark Stone, should he be cleared to play against the Oilers.

Victor Olofsson has been serving in a middle-six capacity due to Dorofeyev's absence, and that's likely to continue in Game 2 versus Edmonton on Thursday if Dorofeyev isn't ready to return.

Dorofeyev (undisclosed) will not be in the lineup for Game 1 against the Oilers on Tuesday, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Dorofeyev will miss his second straight game due to his lingering undisclosed injury. In five postseason appearances, the 24-year-old winger notched one goal and one assist -- both with the man advantage -- to go with 18 shots, three hits and two blocks. With Dorofeyev on the shelf, Victor Olofsson should continue to see minutes in a middle-six role.

Golden Knights' Pavel Dorofeyev: Still day-to-day
Dorofeyev (undisclosed) didn't participate in Saturday's practice and remains day-to-day ahead of Round 2 of the playoffs, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Dorofeyev sat out Thursday's series-clinching 3-2 win over Minnesota in Game 6 after getting hurt in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime victory. He has one goal and an assist in five postseason outings after producing 35 tallies and 52 points across 82 regular-season appearances in 2024-25. If Dorofeyev returns for Game 1 versus Edmonton, Tanner Pearson and Victor Olofsson are candidates to come out of the lineup.
