Forget Marner and Eichel, Dorofeyev is the real threat for Vegas
"Last year, Dorofeyev set himself a career-high 35 goals and 52 points on the year, leading the team in goals. But after the signing of Marner during the offseason, it seemed like the majority of goals would come from the fresh new Eichel and Marner partnership. However, after only seven games, Dorofeyev is only showing signs of improvement and will only continue to light the lamp."
"Scoring seven goals in as many games so far, going forward it seems like Dorofeyev will be the go to guy for big goals, powerplay shooting, and as a guy who you want to get the puck to in dangerous areas. He can score via wrist shots, slap shots, and sweet snap shots, and has already registered a hat trick this season, showcasing how effective his scoring will be for the Knights this year."
"With how the Knights have set up so far, it looks like Dorofeyev will be the guy they lean on during high pressure sequences, and will look to get him the perfect opportunities to get the puck to the net. He has already shown how he can score everywhere, and can even provide perfect shot passes to the net for rebounds, highlighting how his scoring game can stem much further."
Pavel Dorofeyev scored a career-high 35 goals and 52 points last season, leading the team in goals. He has begun the new season with seven goals in seven games, including a hat trick, establishing himself as a primary finishing threat for the Golden Knights. Dorofeyev can score with wrist shots, slap shots, and snap shots, and contributes power-play shooting and shot passes that create rebound chances. The offseason addition of Mitch Marner and the Eichel-Mar ner pairing had been expected to drive offense, but Dorofeyev’s hot start positions him as a go-to scorer and a projected 35–40 goal producer.
